Inconsistent death year?

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

The lead says that Lucius Calpurnius Piso died in 70. However, the infobox says he died in 69. Unfortunately, all of the sources appear to be print sources (and I do not have any of them), so I am not able to determine which year is correct.

Would someone with access to the cited sources be able to provide the correct death year in both the infobox and the lead? Thanks! palindrome§ǝɯoɹpuᴉןɐd 05:53, 11 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

I decided to take the liberty to switch the infobox death date to 70. All of the versions of this article in other languages list 70 as the death year, and I did not want the article to remain inconsistent. Feel free to revert my edit if you learn he in fact died in 69. palindrome§ǝɯoɹpuᴉןɐd 05:58, 11 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
