Abstract
The practice of wet-nursing spread in Roman times as early as the late Republic even more during the Imperial age. It is widely believed in the literature that it was the Antonine emperors who curbed this trend and favoured the role of mothers. However, there is no specific legislative intervention handed us to us, but some legal and literary sources confirm the widespread interest in this topic at the time.
