The etymology of committee is not the same as that of comitia. Committee comes from to commit in English, i.e. it's a body to which something is committed or referred. Comitia is something entirely different, and means simply a going together, so assembly or congregation would be more appropriate.

Why two bibliographies? 'References' and 'Further Reading' should be merged into a single list of modern treatises. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.92.6.136 (talk) 09:47, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated[edit]

Like a lot of articles on the ancient Roman government, this one is very outdated. For example, Mommsen was great, but has been made obsolete by a lot of work in the intervening 150 years(!). It needs a major overhaul. - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 20:19, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not architecture[edit]

There's a lot of confusion on Wikipedia between "comitia" = assembly and "comitium" = meeting-house. The former has nothing to do with the latter in practice (even if the words are etymologically related). - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 20:33, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Confused sentence?[edit]

Hi, under "Decline" it is stated that "Cicero's contemporaries argued that without confirmation in the imperium, a magistrate could not as a promagistrate, or without it, govern the province at his own expense and be ineligible for a triumph after a military victory...". Not sure what that means. I suspect lack of one verb, and have edited accordingly, but pls. check. Also the logical sum of "without imperium" someone could not "be ineligible" adds to the impression of a garbled transcription of the source. Because eligible is what you want to be, right?
