Spurius Nautius Rutilus (consul 488 BC)

Dionysius of Halicarnassus first mentions Spurius Nautius in 493 BC as having been one of the most distinguished young Patricians during the period of the first secession of the plebs. He was consul in 488 BC which was also the same year that the Volsci, under the command of Coriolanus, marched on Rome and besieged the city.
