    • Senator in 49? The entry should probably read C. Sentius C. f. Sab. (4, see 9), unless there is a lacuna in Joseph. AJ 14.220. As he is listed last in the consilium of the consul in 49 (Joseph. AY 14.229), he was probably not yet a senator (cf. the position of the tr. mil. in the list in AJ 14.229), but was almost certainly a tr. mil. Münzer identifies him with Saturninus (see 9), the envoy in 40 (MRR 2.384; App. BC 5.52) and with Sentius Saturninus Vetulo (see 9), named in Val. Max. 7.3.9 (but cf. App. BC 4.45, where a similar story is told of a Pomponius), and with the father of C. Sentius C. f. C. n. Saturninus (9). Cos. 19 (see Groag, RE no. 9).
