The vigintisexviri ( sg. vigintisexvir; lit. 'twenty-six men') were a college ( collegium) of minor magistrates (magistratus minores) in the Roman Republic. The college consisted of six boards: [1]
Being a member of the vigintisexviri was a prerequisite to the quaestorship after the reforms of Sulla. [5] The label used for these magistrates may only have been introduced after Sullan times, but the first of the constituent boards may date back to the third century BC. [1]
The duoviri viis extra urbem purgandis and the four praefecti Capuam Cumas were abolished by Augustus c. 13 BC, reducing the vigintisexviri to the vigintiviri. [1] In AD 13, the senate restricted eligibility, ordaining that only equites should be eligible to the college of the then-vigintiviri. [6] The remaining boards were not abolished entirely until at least the third century. [1]
