Talk:Pactumeia gens

In re: T. Pactumeius Magnus
I haven't found a source yet that shows the prefect of Egypt is the same man as the suffect consul. On one hand, it's possible: Lucius Volusius Maecianus is known to have been promoted to have been prefect of Egypt, & afterwards promoted to the Senate, & made suffect consul, so there is a president for this. On the other hand, they could be father-son or cousins; Romans could be astoundingly unimaginative when it came to names, such as in the case of the emperor Vespasian & his son Titus, who otherwise had the same name. Until we learn more about each of the Pactumeii, best to treat them as different people. -- llywrch (talk) 22:16, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
