An ancient Roman orator. Born in Cirta, Numidia. He served as a magistrate in Rome, and became consul in 143. He was well known as a teacher of rhetoric, and was appointed by Emperor Antoninus Pius to be the Latin tutor of the future emperor Marcus Aurelius. His gorgeous prose, modeled on the old-fashioned style of Plautus, Cato, Sallust, and others, had a strong influence on later generations.
