In Diod. and Cassiod. Cornelius has the praenomen Marcus, which is otherwise unattested in this branch of the Cornelii. He may be identified with the Dictator of 385. It is uncertain whether to attribute the consulships of Furius to an elder L. Furius Medullinus, who was Mil. Tr. c. p. in 432, 425, and 420, or to a younger one, probably his son, who according to Fast. Cap., held the Military Tribunates listed above. Livy appears to include one of the earlier occasions in the career of the Mil. Tr. of 407, but from 398 on his numbering appears to agree with that in Fast. Cap. The dates of these consulships tend to favor the younger man. See Münzer, RE, loc. cit. on both these men. Degrassi (98) leaves the question open. (Broughton MRR I)
