Lucius Valerius Flaccus (consul 261 BC)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lucius Valerius Flaccus was a consul of the Roman Republic in 261 BC with Tiberius Otacilius Crassus. He was possibly the ancestor of all later consuls by that name, since he marks the first appearance of a Lucius Valerius Flaccus on the list of consuls.[1] He and his consular colleague waged war in Sicily.[2]
