The gens Fabia was one of the most ancient patrician families at ancient Rome. The gens played a prominent part in history soon after the establishment of the Republic,and three brothers were invested with seven successive consulships,from 485 to 479 BC,thereby cementing the high repute of the family. Overall,the Fabii received 45 consulships during the Republic. The house derived its greatest lustre from the patriotic courage and tragic fate of the 306 Fabii in the Battle of the Cremera,477 BC.
