Lucius Porcius Licinus

Lucius Porcius Licinus was a Roman politician in the second century BC.

His father of the same name served as praetor at the Battle of the Metaurus.

His son was also named Lucius Porcius Licinus.

[2] Both consuls waged war against the Ligurians, accomplishing not much of note.

During the war, Licinus vowed to Venus that he would build her a temple, which his son (or brother) dedicated in Rome in 181 BC, the Temple of Venus Erycina at the Porta Collina.
