Cicero was killed in response to a series of "phillipics", or aggressive speeches, he made against Mark Anthony, the consul and friend of the recently murdered Caesar. He was hunted down and executed, against the wishes of Octavian (later Augustus) by a triumverate. His head was displayed in the curia and his hands in the forum.
