Servius Sulpicio Camerino (consul 461 BC)


Servius Sulpice Camerino Cornuto (in Latin Servius Sulpicius Camerinus Cornutus), Roman consul in the year 461 a. C., with Publio Volumnio Amentino Galo like colleague. It is probable that it was son of the consul of the same name, of the year 500 a. C. Servici Sulpicio Camerino and possibly grandfathers of the consular tribune Quinto Sulpicio Camerino Cornuto.

Ser. Sulpicio Ser. F. Ser. N. Camerino Cornuto, exercised the consulate in the year in which the Arsenic Terentilia Law was presented for the second time, this law, however, was successfully resisted by the patricians, until in the year 454 a. C. it was resolved to send three ambassadors to Greece to gather information concerning the laws of the Greek states; Servio Camerino was one of them, according to the story of Dionysius of Halicarnassus (x.52), although Livy (iii.31) calls him Publius. The ambassadors remained for three years in Greece, and, upon his return Servio Camerino was appointed member of the decemvirate of the year 451 a. C.

In 446 a. C. commanded the cavalry under the consuls Tito Quincio Capitolino Barbato and Agripa Furio Medulino in the great battle that happened that year against the volscos and ecuos.
