Career

  • Legatus (Ambassador)? 112 Aegyptus (Broughton MRR I) Expand
    • Münzer is inclined to identify Memmius with the L. Memmius C. f. Men. named in the S. C. de agro Pergameno (RE), and Cichorius (Untersuch. Lucil. 3f.) with a brother of the Tribune of 111, though the latter belonged to the Galerian tribe. But these connections fail now that Passerini (Athenaeum 15 [1937] 252ff.) has shown that the S.C. is dated, not in 110 as Cichorius and other believed, but in 129 (see 133, note 1). On the visit to Egypt, see Otto and Bengtson, Zur Gesch. d. Niedergang d. Ptolemäerreiches 159f. (Broughton MRR I)
    • A distinguished senator, who visited Egypt, and was sumptuously entertained at public expense (P. Teb. 1.33- Wilcken, Chrest. 1.2.3; cf. Wilhelm, JRS 27 [1937] 145). (Broughton MRR I)
