Procurator (or financial officer) of the province of Britain from 61 to about 65 AD. By his action the province was pacified without vindictive reprisals after the destruction of London during the revolt of Queen Boudicca and the Iceni. Husband of Julia Pacata. Try not to titter at his name - nicknamed Classy Arse, surely. His tomb is in the BM and Londonist managed not even a smirk when they reported on it.
