Aulus Caecina Tacitus
Aulus Caecina Tacitus was a Roman politician and senator .
Caecina Tacitus is named in an inscription from Mauretania Tingitana , which cannot be dated more precisely than the 3rd century, with his official career as Quaestor candidatus , Praetor candidatus , Praeses provinciae Baeticae , consul and septemvir epulonum . He came from a patrician family, whereby he received his first offices as a candidate for the emperor and could skip aedilate and tribunate. Since he was praeses (governor) in the Baetica , he will not have received this office until the second half of the 3rd century.
Caecina is considered the Ordinary Consul of the year 273 in place of Marcus Cornelius Tacitus .
