Данная статья посвящена анализу одного из эпизодов биографии Пиктора, связанного с его посольской миссией в Дельфах в 216 г. до н. э. после поражения римлян при Каннах. Ответ на вопрос, почему сенат поручил эту миссию Фабию Пиктору, кроется в выдающемся положении в сенате его кузена Квинта Фабия Максима Веррукоза (Кунктатора). Занимая ведущее положение в военно-политической и религиозной сферах жизни Римской республики, он убедил сенат в надежности кандидатуры своего родственника для выполнения ответственного поручения. Фабий Пиктор был удобной фигурой: опираясь на дипломатический и религиозный опыт своих предков, он в то же время не обладал известностью за пределами Рима, как его родственник и современник – Веррукоз Кунктатор. Поездка Фабия в Дельфы не имела статуса официального посольства, а была частным поручением, возложенным на него сенатом. В то же время знакомство с культом Аполлона Дельфийского повлияло на формирование представлений историка об отдаленном прошлом Рима, которые он отразил в своем сочинении. От Пиктора берет начало каноническая версия древнейшей римской истории с правлением семи царей. </p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Fabius Pictor was the first Roman to write the history of his City. He came from one of the most distinguished noble families, which traced its origins back to the beginning of Rome. The article deals with one of the episodes of Pictor’s biography – his visit to Delphi in 216 B.C. after the defeat of the Romans at Cannae. The answerto the question of why the Senate entrusted this mission to Fabius Pictor lies in the outstanding position in the Senate of his cousin Quintus Fabius Maximus (Cunctator). Holding a leading position in the military-political and religious spheres of life in the Roman Republic, he convinced the Senate of the reliability of his relative’s candidacy to carry out the highly sensitive task. Fabius Pictor was a convenient figure: he was guided by his ancestors diplomatic and religious experience, but at the same time was unknown outside Rome unlike his kinsman and contemporary – Verucius Cunctator. Pictor’s visit to Delphi was not an official diplomatic mission; the Senate just charged him with a private assignment. At the same time, acquaintance with the cult of Apollo at Delphi influenced the historian’s conception of the distant past of Rome, which he reflected in his work. Since then the canonic version of the earliest Roman history with the rule of seven kings takes the beginning. </p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Фабий Пиктор</kwd><kwd>Дельфийский оракул</kwd><kwd>Квинт Фабий Максим Веррукоз</kwd><kwd>посольство сената в Дельфы</kwd><kwd>список римских царей</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Fabius Pictor</kwd><kwd>the Delphic Oracle</kwd><kwd>Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus</kwd><kwd>senate’s embassy to Delphi</kwd><kwd>the Roman kings-list</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Короленков 2017 – Короленков А.В.
