Julius Caesar and Aurelia a woman not unworthy of being ranked with Cornelia, the mother of the Gracchi - and was born on the 12th of Quintilis (july), in the year s. C. 100.

Beyond this, little is known respecting his early youth, for the two biographies which we have of him by Plutarch and Sue tonina are unfortunately defective, the beginning being wanting in both.'
