  • Praetor? 170 (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Domitius was Praetor by 165 at the latest and probably held the office in 170, since he is listed immediately after the consulars in the commission of ten members sent to Macedonia in 167 (see 167, Legates). It is possible however that the Domitius sent to Greece as a Legate in 169 was his father the Consul of 192 (see 169, Legates), as the commission is not listed completely in the order of seniority.{423} (Broughton MRR I)
