Marcus Atilius Postumus Bradua was a Roman senator during the later part of the first century. He was suffect consul for the nundinium July-August 80 with Quintus Pompeius Trio as his colleague. [1] He was also governor of Asia in 94/95. [2]

Bradua is commonly believed to be the father of Marcus Atilius Metilius Bradua, suffect consul in 108; if so, his son's name indicates that Bradua married a Metilia. [3]
