Marcus Minucius Augurinus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marcus Minucius Augurinus (fl. c. 509 – 488 BC) was a Roman Republican politician of the patrician gens Minucia during the beginning of the 5th century BC. He served as Consul of Rome in 497 BC and 491 BC, both times serving together with Aulus Sempronius Atratinus.
Although the Minucia gens has been traditionally known as a plebeian family, the family's origins are indeed of the patrician class and it is from that branch of the family from which Minucius Augurinus is descended.
He was the brother of Publius Minucius Augurinus, who later served as consul in 492 BC.
