Ogu'lnia Gens

plebeian, is most known through one of its members being the proposer of the law, which opened the two great ecclesiastical corporations to the plebeians. The first and only person in this gens who obtained the consulship is Q. Ogulnius Gallus, who was consul B. C. 269. GALLUS is the only cognomen of the Ogulnii : the others, who have no surname, are given below.

The annexed coin belongs to this gens, but by whom it was struck is uncertain. The names on the obverse, Q. OGVL. CAR. VER., are those of triumvirs of the mint, and are probably abbreviations of Q. Ogulnius, Carvilius, and Verginius or Virgilius.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
