Lucius Arruntius (c. 60 BC-AD 10) was a Roman Admiral. He saw action during the War with Sextus Pompeius, and the war of Mark Antony and Augustus. He is most notable for his participation during the Battle of Actium, where he was in command of victorious Augustus' central division.
He is also mentioned in Seneca's Epistulae morales ad Lucilium (Ep. Mor. 114.17) as an imitator of Sallustius' literary style and as the author of a historical work on the Punic War.
