Gnaeus Acerronius Proculus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gnaeus Acerronius Proculus was a consul of the Roman Empire in 37 AD, the year in which Tiberius died.[1][2] He was perhaps a de­scendant of the Cn. Acerronius whom Cicero mentions in his oration for Tullius, Pro Tullio, from 71 BC, as a vir optimus.[3][4]
