Agrippa Menenius Lanatus (consul 439 BC)

Agrippa Menenius Lanatus was consul of the Roman republic in 439 BC and possibly the consular tribune of 419 and 417 BC.

Menenius belonged to the Menenia gens. His father was Titus Menenius Lanatus, consul in 477 BC. Following filiations he was probably the brother of Lucius Menenius Lanatus, consul in 440 BC, and Titus Menenius Lanatus.[1]

Career

Menenius was one of three patricians sent to lead the colonization of Ardea by the orders of the consuls Marcus Fabius Vibulanus and Postumus Aebutius Helva Cornicen in 442 BC. The two other members of the triumviri coloniae deducendae were Titus Cloelius Siculus and Marcus Aebutius Helva.[2][3][4]

In 439 BC Menenius was elected consul together with the elderly Titus Quinctius Capitolinus Barbatus. The year saw a large conspiracy lead by Spurius Maelius and the appointment of Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus as dictator for a second and final time. [5][6][7]

Twenty years later in 419 BC, Menenius or possibly another Agrippa Menenius Lanatus, son of Titus Menenius Lanatus, consul in 452 BC, was elected as consular tribune. This consular tribune was re-elected in 417 BC.[8][9][10][11][12]

gollark: no.
gollark: But this is not accurate. It assumes the only options are "no god" or "basically Christian god".
gollark: Pascal's Wager basically goes "if no god, belief doesn't have costs anyway (wrong, since it takes time and may make your thinking more irrational); if god, non-belief means infinite badness (hell), belief means infinite goodness (heaven), so rationally you should believe".
gollark: There *may* be a god of some kind who rewards you for believing in them and their afterlife and such, but there is an infinity of possible gods including ones like "allocates you to heaven or hell entirely at random", "entirely indistinguishable from no god", "sends you to hell if you believe in the *other* god", "incomprehensible eldritch abomination" or "literal bees".
