Large families were not the norm among the elite even by the Late Republic; the family of Clodius Pulcher, who had at least three sisters and two brothers, was considered unusual.
Velike obitelji nisu bile uobičajene među rimskom elitom već u doba pozne republike (146.–30. pp. n.e.); obitelj Publija Klodija Pulhera, koji je imao najmanje tri sestre i dva brata, smatrala se neuobičajeno velikom.
