When in the history of ancient Rome were two dictators appointed to rule together?
ChuckSiata
The only exception to the rule of the Roman Republic that there could only one dictator was in 216 BC after the battle of Cannae during the Second Punic War. Marcus Fabius Buteo was appointed dictator with the very specific and narrow mandate of filling up the vacancies in the senate which had been created by the death of many senators in that battle. He was appointed because he was the oldest surviving former censor (an officer of state who kept the roll of senators and enrolled new senators). He resigned as soon as he finished revising the roll and enlisting the new senators. The other dictator, Marcus Junius Pera, who was appointed with the mandate to fight Hannibal's army, served the full six months of this office.

The best known early roman dictator of the republic was?
The best known early dictator of the Republic was Cincinnatus. The most famous of all the dictator in the whole of the history of the Republic was Julius Caesar who was appointed dictator four times in the Late Republic. The first time he was dictator in order to preside over his own election as consul (these were the two annually elected heads of the Republic) and resigned after 17 days (49 BC). The second time he was appointed dictator for one year (48 B) the third for ten years (46 BC) and the fourth for life (44 BC). During the 482 years of the Roman Republic a dictator was appointed 88 times. Since some men were appointed as dictators name than once, in total 75 men were appointed as dictators. Apart from two men, all dictators resigned either before the six months were up, when their job specified in their mandate was done, or within the six months. The only two exceptions were Lucius Cornelius Sulla and Julius Caesar. Sulla was appointed for and indeterminate term of office in 81 BC to reform the Roman constitution. During this Dictatorship he had several thousands of his political opponents executed or murdered. This had been unprecedented and gave the dictatorship a bad name. One man was appointed as dictator five times (Marius Furius Camillus), two men were appointed four times (Lucius Papirius Cursor and Julius Caesar) three men were appointed three times (Mamercus Aemilius Mamercinus, Titus Manlius Imperiosus Torquatus and Marcus Valerius Corvus). Six men were appointed twice.
