As a first name is passed down with Livius Spurius, with Dionysius of Halicarnassus Servius and with Diodor Gaius. Only Structus has been handed down as a cognomen , but due to the relationships it is obvious that he also had the cognomen Priscus. His father could have been Publius Servilius Priscus Structus , his son Publius Servilius Priscus .

According to tradition, the consuls on the Ianiculum are said to have won a victory over the Etruscans, which is said to have ended the war against Veji .
