Cornelius Scipio Salvito
Cornelius Scipio ‘Salvito’ (the agnomen ''Salvito'' was conferred on him due to his resemblance to a mime artist of the same name)〔Pliny, ''Natural History'' VII, 12:30:2〕 was a minor member of the Cornelia gens who lived in the late Roman Republic. He was a relative of Scipio Africanus, the Roman general who defeated Hannibal.〔Plutarch, ''Life of Caesar'' 52:5〕
Salvito was, according to Plutarch and Suetonius, "a contemptible nobody",〔Plutarch, 52:5; Suetonius, ''Life of Julius Caesar'', 59:1〕 who was taken by Julius Caesar in 46 BC on his North African campaign against the remnants of Pompey's forces, led by Quintus Caecilius Metellus Pius Scipio Nasica. Because of a long-standing belief that only a Scipio could be victorious in Africa, and because he was facing a Scipio, Caesar placed Salvito at the front of his army, either as a good luck charm to calm his nervous troops, or to demonstrate his contempt to Scipio Nasica.〔Cassius Dio, ''Roman History'', 42:58:1; Plutarch, 52:5〕 Caesar forced him to attack the enemy frequently and to bring on the battle.
