- Luci Carvili (en llatí Lucius Carvilius) va ser un magistrat i polític romà del segle iii aC. Formava part de la gens Carvília, una gens romana d'origen plebeu. Va ser tribú de la plebs l'any 212 aC. Juntament amb Espuri Carvili, que podria ser el seu germà, va proposar multar a Marc Postumi amb 200.000 asos romans per haver defraudat l'estat. Postumi va ser un dels "agricultors dels impostos", que feien enviaments a les forces romanes a l'estranger durant la Segona Guerra Púnica. Sovint sabotejava els seus propis enviaments i reclamava pèrdues i naufragis imaginaris per tal de ser reemborsat per l'estat. L'afer de Marc Postumi va generar un motí de la gent contra els seus partidaris, i els Carvilii van portar els dirigents davant el Senat. Postumi va donar garanties de pagament i va optar per exiliar-se en comptes d'aparèixer en persona, i molts dels seus simpatitzants també van preferir l'exili a l'empresonament. D'aquesta manera, Spurius i Lucius Carvilius van poder aturar la desfeta econòmica en un moment crític de la guerra. (ca)
- Lucius Carvilius was tribune of the people at Rome in 212 BC. Together with Spurius Carvilius, perhaps his brother, he proposed that a fine of 200,000 asses be levied against Marcus Postumius Pyrgensis, for defrauding the state. Postumius was one of the "farmers of the taxes", who made their living shipping goods to Roman forces overseas during the Second Punic War. He made a habit of sabotaging his own shipments and claiming losses from these and other imaginary shipwrecks, for which he was re-imbursed by the state. After Postumius' trial nearly escalated into a riot between the people and his supporters, the Carvilii brought capital charges before the Senate. Postumius gave surety and chose to go into exile rather than appear in person, and many of his supporters likewise chose exile over imprisonment. In this way, Spurius and Lucius Carvilius were able to halt this pernicious drain on the treasury during a critical point in the war. (en)
