The family of the elder Balbus came from a senatorial family from Aricia (modern Ariccia, Italy ). In villas, relatives would display masks in memory of their ancestors. Balbus married Balba Prima, Atia Balba Caesonia (mother of Caesar Augustus ), and Atia Balba Tertia. He served as a Praetor and under Caesar was appointed as a commissioner under Julian Law, to divide the estates in Campania among the commoners. |
