Career

• Flamen Martialis? 56 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
  • 3 Klose (p. 25), in opposition to D.-G. and Münzer, who refer the notice in Att. 12.7.1 to Lentulus Niger, holds that the interval of eleven years is too great for such a reference to apply. A L. Cornelius Lentulus, Flamen Martialis, is Imown between 20 and 15 B. C. (but see PIR² 2.336, no. 1384). Klose admits that the son of Lentulus Niger was not a Flamen in 54 (Cic. QF 3.1.15; Ascon. 28 C). Münzer's opinion seems preferable (RE no. 196) (Broughton MRR II)
  • L. Cornelius Lentulus succeeded L. Cornelius Lentulus Niger. Cic. Att. 4.6.1-2; cf. 12.7. 1, late in 46 B. C. (Broughton MRR II)
