Gaius Valerius Pudens

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gaius Valerius Pudens was a Roman politician and general of the late second - early third centuries.

Valerius Pudens held command in Pannonia Inferior before becoming governor of Germania Inferior. Around 202 or 203 he became governor of Roman Britain, serving until c. 206.

An inscription at Bainbridge fort records new barracks being built under his governorship, possibly in connection with recent uprisings by the Brigantes.
