Alfena (gens)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The gens Alfena or Alfenia was a Roman family, known from the first century BC to the first century AD. The gens is known chiefly from three individuals, one of whom attained the consulship. They all shared the cognomen Varus, and may have been closely related.[1]
