The first member of this gens to achieve prominence was Marcus Aburius, praetor peregrinus in 176 BC.
[1][2][3] The Aburii are known to have used the praenomina Marcus, Gaius, and Decimus.
The first of the Aburii to appear in history bore no cognomen.
The abbreviation Gem., probably for Geminus, a twin, appears on coins.
Coins of the Aburii do not depict members of the family, but do portray the popular motif of Heracles wearing a lion's mask.
