Aulus Plautius (suffect consul 1 BC)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aulus Plautius (* around 44 BC (?); † after 1 BC) was a Roman politician and consul of the year 1 BC. Chr.

Aulus Plautius was probably the grandson of the senator of the same name , who lived in 51 BC. BC praetor urbanus and 49/48 probably proconsul of Bithynia et Pontus . Aulus Plautius had, together with Vitellia, the great-aunt of the later emperor Vitellius , two sons and a daughter, Aulus Plautius (suffect consul 29 and conqueror of Britain), Quintus Plautius (consul 36), the father of Plautius Lateranus , and Plautia, the wife of Publius Petronius .

In the year 1 BC Aulus Plautius exercised together with Aulus Caecina (Severus) the office of a suffect consul. He is probably identical to Aulus Plautius, who (probably in the years 9/10 AD) was sent [...] together with us Celer by Augustus to Apulia to torture slaves there. For chronological reasons, Plautius is unlikely to begin with the 22/20 BC BC in Cyprus acting proconsul to be equated; this could have been his father.
