Titus Statilius Maximus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Titus Statilius Maximus was a Roman senator of the 2nd century AD. He was consul in the year 144 as the colleague of Lucius Hedius Rufus Lollianus Avitus.[1] He is known entirely from inscriptions.

Maximus was descended from a wealthy Syrian family; Géza Alföldy has identified two of his relatives active in that province, one the patron of Heliopolis (modern Baalbek), the other a prominent citizen of Beirut.[2]: 319  He was the son of Titus Statilius Maximus Severus Hadrianus, consul in 115.[2]: 323  It is possible Maximus was the father of Titus Statilius Severus, consul in 171.[2]: 325 

After his time as a consul, he is attested as the curator aedium sacrarum in the year 146.[1]: 325  For the period 157/158, he was proconsular governor of Asia.[3]
