Sextus Calpurnius Agricola

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dedicatory inscription ( RIB 1137 )

Sextus Calpurnius Agricola was a Roman politician living in the 2nd century AD .

Through military diplomas , e.g. Some of them are dated September 27, 154, it is documented that Agricola 154 was together with Tiberius Claudius Iulianus suffect consul ; the two held this office from September 1 to the end of October. In 158 he was governor ( Legatus Augusti pro praetore ) in the province of Germania superior , as can be seen from an inscription. Another inscription found in Coriosopitum , dated 162/168, and a diploma dated 161/163, prove that he was governor of the province of Britannia during this period .
