Quintus Servilius Fidenas came from the ancient Roman family of the Servilians . According to the filiation of the Fasti Capitolini , his father also used the prenomen Quintus , while his grandfather used the first name Publius .

Servilius Fidenas is likely to have been a very important and respected patrician at the time of the war against the neighboring Etruscan city of Veji and the conquest of Rome by the Gauls , since he was a member of the highest body of magistrates, the consular tribunes, no less than six times in this era: 402, 398, 395, 390, 388 and 386 BC Only a few other members of the Roman leadership class - such as Marcus Furius Camillus - achieved the highest office of state with comparable frequency. The historian Titus Livius only mentions that Servilius Fidenas 397 BC. Chr. Interrex was, obviously the annalistics could not give any further details about his person despite his influential position.
