Name

There isn't really a Roman name "Caius" -- rather, there was a Roman name Gaius, which for complicated reasons connected with the early history of the Latin alphabet, was often abbreviated by the single initial "C" (not "G"). "Caius" is almost always a corrupted reading (except in Gonville and Caius college, where it's a pretentious pseudo-Latinization of the English surname "Keys").

Town

I changed the city of birth from Solin to Salona because here in Wikipedia there are two links and two articles: one ( Solin, Croatia) for the modern Croatian town and the other ( Salona) for the ancient town, Illyrian first and then Latin, where Caius was born. In present times Salona is situated near today's town of Solin. (Sorry for my very poor English)-- Luigi 28 ( talk) 23:54, 14 June 2008 (UTC) reply
