Is the flamen dialis the same man as the praetor? Not according to the Slavic languages. They have separate articles. Tostarpadius (talk) 14:38, 2 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

His entry in the Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology says they were the same. Is there anything we could use as a source here that suggests they were different persons? Perhaps they're simply duplicate articles on other wikis. P Aculeius (talk) 17:11, 2 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
