Quintus Fulvius Flaccus (consul 179 BCE)
- Quintus Fulvius Flaccus (consul 179 BCE)
Quintus Fulvius Flaccus is first noticed as curule aedile in 184 BC, then as praetor in Spain campaigning against the Celtiberians in 182-180 BC. As consul in 179 BC he fought the Ligurians. He was censor in 174 BC, and in 173 BC built a temple to Fortuna Equestris by taking marble from a temple of Juno Lacinia in Bruttium or so we are told in the works of Livy . He was reported to have gone insane the following year and committed suicide. The Via Fulvia is doubtfully attributed to him.
