Titus Menenius Lanatus (fl. c. 452 BC) was a Roman senator during the 5th century BC. He served as consul in 452 BC.
In 452 BC, he was consul with Publius Sestius Capitolinus Vaticanus. [1] [2] During their consulship, the delegates left to study Greek law in Athens. After returning to Rome, the tribunes of the plebs called together officials to create a commission to write the law down. Publius Sestius supported this proposition, contrary to Titus Menenius, who pondered the question before falling ill; then he was rendered inactive until the end of his term as consul. [2] Publius Sestius refused to take the initiative on his own in creating the commission. So he deferred the decision to the following year. [3]
Titus Menenius was the father of Agrippa Menenius Lanatus, consul in 439 BC.

The outcome of those negotiations reunited the Roman people, and established the tribunes of the plebs, one of the most important institutions of the Roman Republic.

The gens Maenia, occasionally written Mainia, was a plebeian family at ancient Rome. Members of this gens are first mentioned soon after the establishment of the Republic, and occur in history down to the second century BC. Several of them held the position of tribune of the plebs, from which they strenuously advocated on behalf of their order. The most illustrious of the family was Gaius Maenius, consul in 338 BC, and dictator in both 320 and 314. In some manuscripts, the nomen Maenius appears to have been erroneously substituted for Menenius or Manlius; there are also instances of confusion with Manilius, Maelius, and Maevius.
