Quintus Lollius Urbicus

Quintus Lollius Urbicus was a Roman politician and military commander of the 2nd century AD

Urbicus came from Tiddis in Numidia, where he built a tomb for family members and him as a saint of the city on the forum a statue was erected, whose inscription is preserved. It leads to the stations of his senatorial career ( cursus honorum ). He was ( around the year 121) Quattuorvir viarum curandarum ( an office in vigintivirate ), a military tribune in the Legio XXII Primigenia ( stationed in Mogontiacum ), Quaestor urbanus in Rome, and then Urbicus was legate of the proconsul of the province of Asia, tribune and praetor, both on a proposal of the Emperor, and 130-133 legate of Legio X Gemina was stationed in Vindobona. Also as legate he took to the Emperor Hadrian in part campaign to put down the Jewish revolt under Bar Kochba and received the award of the hasta pura.

While still alive, Hadrian was Lollius Urbicus Suffektkonsul (perhaps 135), Fetiale and governor of the province Germania Inferior. In the first years of the reign of Antoninus Pius, he was governor of Britain and erected the so-called Antonine Wall in what is now Scotland. He later became the proconsul of the province of Africa and about 146-160 Praefectus urbi.
