Quintus Aemilius Saturninus

Quintus Aemilius Saturninus (died AD 200) was an ancient Roman member of the equites class, who held several positions under the emperors Commodus and Septimius Severus. These included Prefect of Roman Egypt (197-200),^[1] and Praetorian prefect (200).

The contemporary praetorian prefect, Gaius Fulvius Plautianus, took exception to having a colleague and not long after Saturninus was appointed, Plautianus had him killed.^[2]
