Lucius Vitellius the Elder (9 BCE–51 CE)

Born 9 BCE, died 51 CE.

Lucius Vitellius (9 BC – AD 51) was the youngest of four sons of procurator Publius Vitellius and the only one of them who did not die as a result of political intrigue. He was consul three times, which was unusual during the Roman Empire for someone who was not a member of the Imperial family. The first time was in the year 34 as the colleague of Paullus Fabius Persicus; the second was in 43 as the colleague of the emperor Claudius; the third was in 47 again as the colleague of the emperor Claudius.
