Biography

Catius Clementinus was a member of the third century gens Catia , and it has been speculated that he may have been the son of either Publius Catius Sabinus (consul in AD 216), or a [Catius? Lepi]dus I[—], a suffect consul sometime during the early third century. [1]

Catius Clementinus’ early career is unknown, but in AD 230, he was made consul ordinarius alongside Lucius Virius Agricola, which is attested by a military diploma. [2] In the following year (AD 231), he was appointed Legatus Augusti pro praetore (or imperial governor) of Germania Superior, which is attested by an inscription. [3] Probably from 236/237 until 238/239 he was governor of Cappadocia, where he is attested by an inscription [4] on a miliarium. [5]

Catius Clementinus may have been the brother of Gaius Catius Clemens, suffect consul about AD 235 and Lucius Catius Celer, suffect consul about AD 241.

Marcus Sedatius Severianus was a Roman senator, suffect consul, and general during the 2nd century AD, originally from Gaul. Severianus was a provincial governor and later a provincial consul. The peak of his career was as suffect consul for the nundinium of July–September 153 as the colleague of Publius Septimius Aper. He was governor of Cappadocia at the start of the Roman war with Parthia, during which he was convinced by the untrustworthy oracle to invade Armenia in 161. Sedatius committed suicide while under siege in the Armenian city of Elegeia, on the upper Euphrates. The legion he led was wiped out shortly after. He was replaced as governor of Cappadocia by Marcus Statius Priscus.

Bernard Rémy notes that his cognomen, "Homullus", appears primarily in Italy, so this may be where his origins lie.
