Marcus Pupienus Maximus

Marcus Pupienus Maximus (b. c. 140) was a Roman senator.

He married Clodia Pulchra, born c. 145, daughter of Appius Claudius Pulcher and wife Sextia, and had a son, the Emperor Pupienus.[citation needed]

The Historia Augusta, whose testimony is not to be trusted unreservedly, claims he was a blacksmith.
