Marcus Coelius Honoratus

Marcus Coelius Honoratus (full name form Marcus Coelius Marci filius Sergia Honoratus ) was a member of the Roman knighthood ( Eques ) living in the 1st century AD .

A military diploma dated July 30, 71, shows that Honoratus 71 was the commander of the Ala I Brittonum . The unit may have been stationed in the province of Pannonia at the time. Honoratus was inscribed in the Tribus Sergia and probably came from Italica in the province of Baetica . Possibly he is related to Quintus Caelius Honoratus , a suffect consul of 105, or to Publius Coelius Balbinus Vibullius Pius , an ordinary consul of 137.
