Senecio Memmius Afer

Senecio Memmius Afer was a Roman politician living in the 1st century AD .

An inscription shows that Afer was governor in two provinces: first he was Legatus Augusti pro praetore in Gallia Aquitania and then Proconsul in Sicilia ; he should have exercised this governorship from 94/95 to 97/98. A military diploma dated April or May 99 shows that Afer 99 was a suffect consul with Publius Sulpicius Lucretius Barba . The consuls couple is attested by another inscription. A fragment of the Fasti Feriarum Latinarum shows that they were consuls as of June 28; the two therefore exercised their office either from April to June or from May to June.

Afer was registered in the Tribus Galeria .
