Tiberius Claudius Paullinus (governor)

The inscription ( RIB 1280 )

Tiberius Claudius Paullinus was a Roman politician living in the 3rd century AD . In the inscriptions his name is given as Tiberius Claudius Paulinus .

Paullinus was a suffect consul for an unspecified year . An inscription found in Venta Silurum proves that he was Legatus legionis of Legio II Augusta and governor ( proconsul ) of the province of Gallia Narbonensis . Another inscription, dated 220, shows that he was governor ( Legatus Augusti pro praetore ) of the province of Britannia inferior . A third inscription shows that he was governor of the province of Gallia Lugdunensis under Severus Alexander (222-235) .

He was possibly a grandson of Tiberius Claudius Paullinus of the same name , who is recorded as a suffect consul in 162 .
