Gaius Vellaeus Tutor was a Roman senator, who was active during the reign of Tiberius.
He was suffect consul in the second half of 28 as the colleague of Lucius Junius Silanus.
[1] The primary event known for their consulship was the promulgation of the Lex Junia Vellae, which concerned how an heir could be disinherited.
[2] Little is known about Tutor, who is the only member of the gens Vellaeus to accede to the consulship, and only a little more about his gens.
Less than half a dozen Vellaeii in total are attested: a Publius Vellaeus who in 21 was in command of the army in Thracia;[3] and three freedmen known from inscriptions recorded in Canusium, whose existence suggest Tutor came from that city.
