Lucius Coelius Festus
Lucius Coelius Festus was a Roman politician living in the 2nd century AD .
An inscription shows that Festus held the following offices (in this order) before he became suffect consul : Praetor , praefectus frumenti dandi ex senatus consulto , legatus Imperatoris Antonini Augusti Asturiae et Callaecia , prefect of the Aerarium Saturni and governor ( proconsul ) in the Province of Pontus et Bithynia .
The Fasti Ostienses , on which his name is partially preserved, shows that Festus 148 was a suffect consul together with Publius Orfidius Senecio ; the two took office on July 1 of that year.
