Gnaeus Octavius (consul 165 BC)

Gnaeus Octavius (flourished 2nd century BC) was a Roman statesman and general who served as consul in 165 BC. Unfortunately, historical sources provide limited information about his life and consulship. While his name is recorded in the fasti consulares (lists of Roman consuls), details about his political career, military commands, or family background are scarce. Further research into surviving Roman texts and inscriptions may yield additional information to expand upon this entry. The lack of readily available information hinders a comprehensive biographical account.
