MARC2226 C. Marcius (63) C. f. C. n. Figulus

Note the conjecture, based on the entry Caesare et Turmo in the Chronographer of 354, that he was a Minucius Thermus (60) who had been adopted by a Marcius Figulus and was really the Thermus named in Cic. Att. 1.1.2 as a likely candidate for the consulship of 64 (Shackleton Bailey, CLA 1.292; Studies 121-122). (Broughton MRR III)
