Titus Caesernius Quinctianus
Titus Caesernius Statius Quinctius Macedo Quinctianus (* approx. 101) was a Roman politician , senator and friend of the emperor Hadrian .
Quinctianus came from Aquileia and was a son of Titus Caesernius Macedo , the procurator of the province of Mauretania Caesariensis in 107, and the Rutilia Prisca Sabiniana. His brother was Titus Caesernius Statianus , suffect consul in 141.
Quinctianus began his official career , which led him as the first of his family to the Senate, around 120 in the highly respected college of the tresviri monetales . Even this office, which as a rule was not held by climbers to the senatorial rank, shows that Caesernius was promoted by Hadrian. He held a military tribune in the province of Lower Germany and was then, as candidate of the emperor, quaestor and tribune of the people . In the time between these two offices and also after his later praetur , he accompanied the emperor as comes on his travels, which took him to Sicily and North Africa in 128 , 131/132 to the east of the empire. About 133-136 Caesernius was a legate of the Legio X Gemina , which was stationed in Vindobona ( Upper Pannonia ). In the following years he worked in Rome as curator of the Via Appia and praefectus alimentorum . The high point of his career was the clothing of the suffect consulate, probably in the year 138. In addition, Quinctianus sodalis Augustalis (imperial priest) was. Further offices are not occupied.
In his homeland Aquileia, of which he was the patron , Caesernius Quinctianus was honored with statues (some of which may have been set up in private). Presumably he owned an estate in ager Albanus near Rome.
