Faltonius Restitutianus

Faltonius Restitutianus (died 252) was a vir egrerius or eques who held several senior-level posts in the Roman Empire of the third century.

His career is known from a half-dozen inscriptions. Restitutianus first appears in an inscription recovered from Amasya in modern Turkey, which attests that he was procurator and praeses in the province of Pontus during the reign of Severus Alexander.[1] His next attested post was procurator in Mauretania Tingitana under one of the Gordian emperors,[2] then praeses during the reign of Gordian III with Aurelius Felix as procurator.[3] Then in an inscription dated to 244, now conserved at the Capitoline Museums, Retitutianus appears as Praefectus vigilum, or Prefect of the Vigiles, with two other men, Aelus Florianus and Herennus Modestinus.[4]

We have no evidence for his career during the brief reigns of the next two emperors, Philip the Arab and Decius. Restitutianus appears again as Praefectus Aegyptus, or governor of Roman Egypt, which post he held from 251 until his abrupt death. According to Guido Bastianini, his assistant Lissenius Proculus governed Egypt until a replacement could arrive from Rome.[5]

He married and had a son, Faltonius Pinianus.

gollark: IIRC this has issues if the shared thing contains further GCed things.
gollark: I may just do the somewhat horrible channel thing then.
gollark: Images are generated at intervals and then may be used to respond to lots of HTTP requests.
gollark: I guess I could make the thing which needs the images poll a channel from the other thread and put them in a table then, but that seems terrible.
gollark: I have another problem. I need to offload the generation of the image things to another thread, since it's quite slow. It seems that just passing a tableref to `createThread` and having it update that doesn't work, since the table is presumably copied at some point. I looked at channels, but they don't look like they work well with async. What's the best way to do this?
