Arkesilaos (Consul)
Arkesilaos (Latinized also Arcesilaus ) was a Roman consul in AD 267.
Arkesilaos held the consulate ( posterior ) in 267 together with Paternus under the rule of Emperor Gallienus in the midst of the imperial crisis of the 3rd century . Apart from his consulate, nothing certain is known about him. He could have been the son or grandson of a Titus Flavius Arcesilaus , who served as a Flemish for the Arval brothers and in the 220s as a magister creatus , i.e. was a high priest. A saints vita of the martyrs Rufina and Secunda from the 5th century also mentions a comes in Rome and Italy, which could be identical to the consul.
