Sextus Appuleius
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sextus Appuleius (flourished 1st century BC & 1st century) was a member of a senatorial family and a descendant of Lucius Appuleius Saturninus, the maternal grandfather of triumvir Marcus Aemilius Lepidus. His was the namesake of his father who was consul in 29 BC, while his mother is unknown.
During his consulship in 14, after Roman Emperor Augustus had died and Tiberius had succeeded him, Appuleius was the first to swear allegiance to Tiberius. Appuleius married Augustus' niece Claudia Marcella Major, probably after the death of her second husband Iullus Antonius in 2 BC. They had a daughter, Appuleia Varilla.
