Caesonius Bassus was a politician of the late Roman Empire. Probably the son of Lucius Caesonius Ovinius Manlius Rufinianus Bassus, he was consul for 317 alongside Ovinius Gallicanus - Egyptian sources state they were in office from 8th January but sources from the western Roman Empire state that they only entered office on 17th February.[1]
