Gaius Popilius Carus Pedo was a Roman senator who held several offices in the emperor's service during the second century.
He was suffect consul in succession to Tiberius Licinius Cassius Cassianus as colleague of Sextus Cocceius Severianus Honorinus until the end of 147.
This was followed by holding in succession the traditional series of republican magistracies, all as candidate of the emperor: quaestor, plebeian tribune, and at last praetor.
At this point Pedo was appointed legatus legionis or commander of Legio X Fretensis around AD 141, but he rejected the post for unknown reasons.
[8] Following his consulship, Pedo was admitted to the collegium of the Septemviri epulonum; Dabrowa estimates this happened between the years 147 and 152.
