] but was adopted into the Manlia gens, probably by Lucius Manlius Acidinus.Velleius Paterculus, ii. 8] He was praetor in 188 BC, and had the province of Hispania Citerior allotted to him, where he remained until 186 BC. In the latter year he defeated the Celtiberi, and had it not been for the arrival of his successor would have reduced the whole people to subjection. He applied for a triumph in conse­quence, but obtained only an ovation. [Livy, xxxviii. 35, xxxix. 21, 29] In 183 BC he was one of the ambassadors sent into Gallia Transalpina, and was also appointed one of the triumvirs for found­ing the Latin colony of Aquileia, which was how­ever not founded until 181 BC. [Livy, xxxix. 54, 55, xl. 34] He was consul in 179 BC, [Livy, xl. 43] with his own brother, Quintus Fulvius Flaccus, which is the only instance of two brothers hold­ing the consulship at the same time. ["Fast. Capitol."] At the election of Acidinus, M. Scipio declared him to be "virum bonum, egregiumque civem." [Cicero, "De Oratore" ii. 64]
