L. Albi'nius
2. A plebeian, who was conveying his wife and children in a cart out of the city, after the defeat on the Alia, B. C. 390, and overtook on the Janiculus, the priests and vestals carrying the sacred things: he made his family alight and took as many as he was able to Caere. (
Liv. 5.40;
V. Max. 1.1.10.)
The consular tribune in B. C. 379, whom Livy (
6.30) calls M. Albinius, is probably the same person as the above. (Comp. Niebuhr,
Hist. of Rome, ii. n. 1201.)
