Marcus Marius (quaestor)
Marcus Marius was a quaestor of the Roman Republic in 76 BC〔T.R.S. Broughton, ''The Magistrates of the Roman Republic'' (American Philological Association, 1952), vol. 2, p. 93.〕 and proquaestor under Quintus Sertorius's government in exile in Spain. Marius was sent by Sertorius to Mithradates of Pontus as an advisor and military commander in the Third Mithridatic War. He is named as or more likely confused with a Varius in Appian.〔Christoph F. Konrad, ''Plutarch's'' Sertorius'': A Historical Commentary'', (University of North Carolina Press, 1994), p. 200. Plutarch, Memnon, and Orosius call him Marius in contexts that indicate the same man is meant.〕
==Family and political connections==
No connection has been established between this Marius and Gaius Marius or the other contemporary Marii of Arpinum. M. Marius is supposed to have arrived in Spain in the company of Perperna, but no further association is recorded with the man who was the prime instigator of Sertorius's assassination a few years later. Given that Marcus Marius was among the senators who fled Sulla, his politics are not likely to have been antithetical to those of the better-known Marian ''populares''. A passage in Orosius〔Orosius 6.2.21–22.〕 implies, but does not directly state, that he was on the list of the proscribed.〔Konrad, ''Plutarch's Sertorius'', p. 182, says that he "can be safely counted among the proscribed."〕 He was certainly a ''fugas'' (φυγάς), a fugitive or exile, in keeping with the "peculiar legal situation" of Sertorius's men, some of whom were ''proscripti'', and others of whom were ''hostes publici'', "public enemies." In both cases, their lives and property were forfeit, and their sons and grandsons lost the rights of citizenship, but the proscribed in addition had bounties on their heads.〔Konrad, ''Plutarch's Sertorius'', p. 182.〕
