Censorius

Censorius (died 448) was a count (comes) of the Western Roman Empire from 432 until his death.

While returning from his third expedition he was captured by Rechila, the Suevic king, near Mértola (Myrtilis).

He spent the next eight years in captivity before being executed by Agiulf at Seville (Hispalis).

His execution may have some connection with the subsequent belligerent attitude of Rechila's successor, Rechiar, towards the Romans.
