Gnaeus Pinarius Aemilius Cicatricula Pompeius Longinus

Gnaeus Pinarius Aemilius Cicatricula Pompeius Longinus was a Roman politician and consul at the turn of the 1st to the 2nd century AD.

Life

He was probably the adopted son of Gnaeus Pinarius Aemilius Cicatricula ( suffect consul probably in 72) and began his career among the Flavians . The first office that is documented for him in ancient literature and in inscriptions was that of governor ( Legatus Augusti pro praetore) of Judaea under the emperor Domitian . By military diplomas that are dated May 13, 86 and 8 June 87, he is busy as governor; he probably left the province in 89, or in summer 90 at the latest. Obviously he was so successful that Domitian appointed him one of the year 90's suffect consuls.

As usual for former consuls, he then became governor, under Domitian from 93/94 to 96/97 in the province of Moesia superior (these are the areas south of the lower Danube and north of the province of Thrace ). Probably immediately afterwards in 97 under Nerva he became governor in the province of Pannonia . In the Second Dacian War he apparently took over a military command under Emperor Trajan 105 if he can be identified with Longinus, who was captured by Decebalus and is said to have killed himself.
