Gaius Vetusius Geminus Cicurinus A.K.A. Publius Vetusius Geminus Cicurinus (Latin ''Publius (also Gaius, Lucius) Veturius Geminus Cicurinus'') was a Roman Republican politician during the beginning of the 5th century BC. He served as Consul of Rome in 499 BC together with Titus Aebutius Elva. He was a member of the patrician class and of the Veturia gens. During his year as consul, the Romans laid siege to the Chameria city of Fidenae which was taken successfully. During this year, the Latins also announced their succession from Rome. According to Titus Livius (II, 19),〔Titus Livius, ''Historia romana'', Book II, 19〕 his prenomen is Caius, but according to Dionysius of Halicarnassus, he was known as ''Publius''.〔Dionysius of Halicarnassus. ''Historia Antigua de Roma'', Book V〕 In fact it does appear that ''Publius'' is more likely his correct name as P. Veturius was one of the first quaestors and was likely the same person as the consul of 499 BC.〔Plutarch, Publícola, 12.〕 His cognomen, ''Geminus'' brings attention to his (presumed) twin brother Titus Veturius Geminus Cicurinus who was himself consul in 494 BC. == See also == * List of Roman Republican consuls * Roman Republic * Veturia (gens) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gaius Veturius Geminus Cicurinus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
