[edit] Comment
The commentary on his personality seems a bit speculative and superficial. I imagine there was a class of slave advisors, since Ceaser, Pompey, Attia all have them. They remind me of taoists and are potrayed as being of Greek or at least of purer mediterranean racial stock (rounder heads, shorter, darker skin). It would be useful to have an entry on this class, if they did indeed exist. I remember in readings long ago, that more than a few philosophers were at one time slaves and tutors.
Indeed, plenty of tutors and philosophers were slaves, and Greeks were especially prized as tutors, but I do not know of any historical suggestion of there being a real class of slave advisors. Marcus Tullius Cicero's slave Tiro would definetly have fallen into this category, but I have never heard of him referred to with any such distinction, only as his slave, or later, freedman. I don't doubt that plenty of other intelligent Romans would have seen talent where it lay, but I know of no historical proof, personally. Varlet16 05:42, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
