- Short Description
- "Gaius Fabius Agrippinus was a Roman senator active in the mid-second century AD, who held a number of offices in the emperor´s service. Agrippinus served as suffect consul for the nundinium October-December 148 with Marcus Antonius Zeno as his colleague. A remarkable commonality between Agrippinus and his colleague Zeno is that they were also consecutive governors of Thracia: Géza Alföldy dates Zeno´s tenure from around the year 140 to about 143; he dates Agrippinus´ tenure from 143 to about 146.
The origins of Agrippinus lie in the port city of Ostia, where his family is known to have owned a house. Here a couple of fragmentary inscriptions have been found that offer the first steps of a cursus honorum that has been connected to Agrippinus, but Anthony Birley admits that these might apply to a homonymous descendant mentioned by Cassius Dio as governor of Syria in 218 or 219." - (en.wikipedia.org 01.02.2020) - Entity Encoding
