Publius Mummius Sisenna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Publius Mummius Sisenna was drafted in by the Emperor Hadrian to serve as governor of Roman Britain around 133 to replace Sextus Julius Severus who was sent to Iudaea to suppress a rebellion there. He had previously served as consul in Rome that same year and was governor until the mid 130s. Hadrian's Wall may have been finished under his governorship but there is little other evidence about him.
