PROD removal
[edit]PROD concern stated as "This woman did not exist. She is not in the Realencyclopadie, not in Broughton, nor in any reliable source of the period I could find. She seems to come from Colleen McCullough's novel Fortune's Favourite." The academic references I have added quote original sources which say that she did indeed exist.

- The references you added refer to the "real" daughter of Balearicus, who was also the mother of Clodius Pulcher. She had a dream while pregnant, so she could not have been a vestal virgin. There is no source mentioning a Caecilia Metella as vestal. I'm putting back the PROD tag. I moved the references you added to the other article on Caecilia Metella.
