* Marcus Clodius Pupienus Maximus, later Roman Emperor ( approximate date )

Cyprus became a Roman province in 58 BC, according to Strabo because Publius Clodius Pulcher held a grudge against Ptolemy and sent Marcus Cato to conquer the island after he had become tribune.

Caesar's agrarian law was carried through, and the Triumviri then proceeded to allow the demagogue Publius Clodius Pulcher's election as tribune of the people, successfully ridding themselves both of Marcus Tullius Cicero and Cato the Younger, both adamant opponents of the Triumviri.

In 52 BC he was prosecuted for the murder of Publius Clodius Pulcher, and was unsuccessfully defended by his friend Marcus Tullius Cicero in the speech Pro Milone.

The first one on the right, decorated on the outside with paintings of funereal banquets and the miracle of the calling out of Cerasa's demons, on the inside contains paintings ( including a ceiling painting of a Gorgon's head ) and inhumation burials and has a surviving inscription reading " Marcus Clodius Hermes ", the name of its owner.

During his term of office he aided Publius Clodius in bringing about the exile of Marcus Tullius Cicero.

In 58 BC, when consul, Piso and his colleague, Aulus Gabinius, entered into a compact with Publius Clodius, with the object of getting Marcus Tullius Cicero out of the way.

* Emperor Maximinus Thrax and Marcus Pupienus Africanus Maximus become Roman consuls.

In periods of joint rule, at first only one of the emperors bore this title, as it occurred for the first time during the reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus, when only Marcus Aurelius was pontifex maximus, but later two pontifices maximi could serve together, as Pupienus and Balbinus did in 238 — a situation unthinkable in Republican times.

Hailing from the Etruscan city of Volterra, it has been speculated that Pupienus was the son of Marcus Pupienus Maximus, a Senator who was the first member of his family to enter the Senate, and wife Clodia Pulchra.

His youngest son, Marcus Pupienus Africanus Maximus, was Consul Ordinarius in 236 AD as colleague of the Emperor Maximinus Thrax.

Pupienus also had a daughter, named Pupiena Sextia Paulina Cethegilla, wife of Marcus Ulpius Eubiotus Leurus.

The Roman commanders, the proconsul Quintus Servilius Caepio and the consul Gnaeus Mallius Maximus, hindered Roman coordination and so the Cimbri succeeded in first defeating the legate Marcus Aurelius Scaurus and later inflicted a devastating defeat on Caepio and Maximus at the Battle of Arausio.

* Marcus Trebellius Maximus, governor of Britannia, is forced the flee to Gaul after a mutiny of Legio XX Valeria Victrix at Deva Victrix ( Chester ).

* Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, Roman statesman, consul, Pontifex Maximus and censor ; as a praetor, he has been governor of Sicily in 191 BC

After Julius Caesar's assassination in 44 BC, his ally Marcus Aemilius Lepidus was selected as Pontifex Maximus.

As reported in Valerius Maximus, this joint cult led to plans in 210 BC by Marcus Claudius Marcellus to erect a joint temple for them both.

This name appears in Valerius Maximus, and Marcus Tullius Cicero refers to a disciplina in his writings on the subject.

Lucius took the title Parthicus Maximus, and he and Marcus were hailed as imperatores again, earning the title ' imp.

Marcus took the Parthicus Maximus now, after another tactful delay.

* Marcus Valerius Maximus ( Potitus?

Messalla Corvinus ' second son, Marcus Aurelius Cotta Maximus ( consul 20 AD ), is believed to have been born to a second unknown wife on the basis of a 23-year gap between the consulship of the elder son, Marcus Valerius Messalla Messallinus and the consulship of the younger son, Marcus Aurelius Cotta Maximus.

It is common for some historians to refer to Marcus Valerius Corvinus and attribute the triumph against the Aquitani, the victory at Messana and the epithet Corvinus to him, when in actuality they are referring to three different generations of men named Valerius Corvinus: Marcus Valerius Messalla Corvinus born 64BC, Manius Valerius Maximus Corvinus Messalla consul 263BC ( birthdate unknown ), and Marcus Valerius Corvus born 370BC.

* 44 BC – Julius Caesar, Dictator of the Roman Republic, is stabbed to death by Marcus Junius Brutus, Gaius Cassius Longinus, Decimus Junius Brutus and several other Roman senators on the Ides of March.

* Consuls are Decimus Valerius Asiaticus and Marcus Junius Silanus Torquatus.

* March 15 ( the Ides of March ) – Julius Caesar, dictator of Rome, is assassinated by a group of Roman senators, amongst them Gaius Cassius Longinus, Marcus Junius Brutus, and Caesar's Massilian naval commander, Decimus Brutus.

Due to his devotion to her, Messalina was able to manipulate Claudius into ordering the exile or execution of various people: the Roman philosopher Seneca the Younger ; Claudius ’ nieces Julia Livilla and Julia ; Marcus Vinicius ( husband of Julia Livilla ); consul Gaius Asinius Pollio II ( see Vipsania Agrippina ); the elder Poppaea Sabina ( mother of Empress Poppaea Sabina, second wife of Nero ); consul Decimus Valerius Asiaticus ; and Polybius.

He was claimed as an ancestor of the Roman gens Junia, including Marcus Junius Brutus and Decimus Junius Brutus, the most famous of Caesar's assassins.

By the 1st century B. C., the praenomina remaining in general use at Rome were: Appius, Aulus, Caeso, Decimus, Gaius, Gnaeus, Lucius, Mamercus, Manius, Marcus, Numerius, Publius, Quintus, Servius, Sextus, Spurius, Titus, and Tiberius.

By the 2nd century A. D., several of these names had also passed out of general use at Rome, leaving Aulus, Decimus, Gaius, Gnaeus, Lucius, Manius, Marcus, Numerius, Publius, Quintus, Sextus, Titus, and Tiberius.

Decimus Brutus is not to be confused with the more famous Brutus among the conspirators, Marcus Brutus.

Ronald Syme argued that Decimus may have been the natural son of Julius Caesar, not the more famous Marcus Brutus ( another distant cousin ).

When Caesar returned to Rome as dictator after the final defeat of the Republican faction in the Battle of Munda ( 45 BC ), Marcus Brutus joined the conspiracy against Caesar, after being convinced by Cassius and Decimus Brutus.

In Conn Iggulden's Emperor Series the historical figures of Decimus Brutus and Marcus Brutus are blended together into the one character named Marcus Brutus.

Decimus was the second born son and was among the child born to Aemilia Lepida and Marcus Junius Silanus Torquatus, a member of the Junii Silani, a family of Ancient Rome.

The fictional character of general Maximus Decimus Meridius ( played by Russell Crowe in the movie Gladiator ) was partially based on Narcissus alongside being based on Marcus Aurelius's general Marcus Nonius Macrinus, Spartacus, Cincinnatus and Maximus of Hispania.

The praenomina favored by the early Junii were Marcus, Lucius, and Decimus.
