Lucius Volusius Saturninus (consul 3)

Lucius Volusius Saturninus (38/37 BC – 56 AD)[1] was a Roman senator from the powerful plebeian Volusia gens, or family.

Literary sources report that within a few years of returning to Rome he was also appointed Urban prefect, which office he held until his death.

[2] When Saturninus died at the age of 93, according to Tacitus, he had accumulated a conspicuous fortune, had an honorable reputation, and through wisdom avoided the malevolence of many of the emperors.

[1] When he died, the Senate, under the sponsorship of Emperor Nero, ordered a state funeral and the erection of a number of statues throughout Rome.

[9] Saturninus married the aristocrat Cornelia Lentula, the daughter of the consul of 3 BC, Lucius Cornelius Lentulus.
