Tiberius Coruncanius (310–242 BCE)

Born 310 BCE, died 242 BCE.

Tiberius Coruncanius (died c. 243 BC) was consul of the Roman Republic in 280 BC. During his consulship he led Roman forces north against the Etruscan Volsinii and Vulci, celebrating triumphs over them, while his colleague Publius Valerius Laevinus fought Pyrrhus of Epirus. Long after his consulship, some time between 255 and 252 BC he was made pontifex maximus, the first plebeian to hold the title. He may also have been the first teacher of Roman law to offer public instruction.
