Lupus, Cu'rtius

was quaestor in A. D. 24. Lipsius supposes that he was one of the four quaestores provinciales, having a province where his head-quarters were at Cales. Others suppose that he was inspector of the roads and forests (calles). While he was in the neighbourhood of Brundisium a man named Curtisius attempted to excite an insurrection among the slaves. Lupus, with the aid of the crews of three vessels which happened to arrive, suppressed the movement. (Tac. Ann. 4.27.)
