The plebeian aediles had a similar role to the curule aediles. He served as curule aedile alongside Julius Caesar in 65 BC. Consuls and praetors, as well as censors and curule aediles, were regarded as "curule magistrates". These included the curule aedile, the praetor, the consul, the magister equitum, and the dictator. The quaestor in the provinces also performed the duties of the curule aedile. He was probably quaestor in 237 or 236 BC, and curule aedile about 235. In time, however, the differences between the plebeian aediles and the curule aediles disappeared. The games were originally organized by the consuls and later by the curule aediles. The Tribal Assembly elected the quaestors, and the curule aediles. In 165, Sextus was one of the curule aediles. He started his political career as curule aedile in 195 BC. Corculum's first known magistracy is that of curule aedile in 169. Caelius was tribune of the "plebs" in 52 and curule aedile in 50. The position of curule aedile was quite prestigious for a man like Marcellus. Individuals given such power were referred to as curule magistrates or promagistrates.
