Lucius Catilius Severus was Roman consul twice, in the years 110 CE (as consul suffectus) and 120 CE.[1] In 120 CE his co-consul was Titus Aurelius Fulvus.[2] Catilius served as provincial governor in Asia and Africa multiple times[3] and also was prefect of Rome.[1] He is believed to have married Dasumia Polla,[3] the widow of Domitius Tullus, and thereby became step-great-grandfather of the later Emperor Marcus Aurelius, whose upbringing he influenced.[4]
