The Ulpianic life table is mentioned in an enigmatic fragment of the Digest (Dig . 35.2.68 pr.; Macer (third century ce ) 2 ad leg. vic her. = Paling. 1.571) excerpted from the third‐century commentary of Aemilius Macer on the lex Iulia de vicesima hereditatum (which was enacted under Augustus in the first century ce , around year 6). This statute decreed that a 5 percent tax should be charged on inheritances and legacies; it underwent many modifications over the centuries but remained in force until shortly before the reign of Justinian (Günther 2007).
