Tullus Menophilus

Tullus Menophilus was a Roman Senator and General who led the defense at the Siege of Aquileia along with Rutilius Pudens Crispinus.

The name Menophilus might indicate that he originates in his past from the Greek speaking east of the Roman empire where Greek was the dominant language and culture.

He was later rewarded with the governorship of Lower Moesia in 238-241. The position indicates that Menophilus was of consular rank since the legate of Moesia Inferior was a former consul.

He was executed in 241 in the reign of Gordian III.
