Roman senator
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lucius Salvius Otho Titianus was the elder brother of the Roman emperor Otho (r. 69 AD). As a Roman senator, he was consul in the year 52 as the colleague of Faustus Cornelius Sulla Felix,[1] and appointed consul as his brother's colleague for the period from Galba's murder to the end of February.[2] When Otho left Rome to halt the advance of Vitellius into Italy, he put the daily imperial responsibilities in the hands of Titianus.[3] Subsequently, Titianus was appointed generalissimo in charge of the war by Otho[4] and was present at the First Battle of Bedriacum.
