In 266 BC the consuls of the year were Decimus Iunius Pera and Numerius Fabius Pictor. During the Roman Republi (509-27 BC) the city and the army were headed by two annually elected consuls. The years were named after the consuls for the year.

Marcus Attilius Regulus, one of the two consuls for the previous year, celebrated a triumph for his victory against the Salentini of Messapia (southern Apulia) in 267 BC. Calabria and Apulia (the toe and the heel of Italy) were annexed into the Roman Republic.
