Tiberius Gracchus
Around that same time, some translations assert that Scipio had made a comparison between himself and Tiberius Gracchus to Agamemnon and Aegisthus, respectively. The public at the time would have been able to extrapolate this comparison to come to the conclusion that Tiberius Gracchus and his sister Sempronia had shared an adulterous and incestuous relationship. While there is no evidence to support this rumor, it is possible it influenced the later scandal between Sempronia and Lucius Equitus.
