Commentary

Oliverio may have been right to identify the subject with Cn. Cornelius P.F. Lentulus Marcellinus, Pompey's legate in Libya in 67 BCE (see DPRR Corn2082), for whom see also C.271, C.280, C.688; and if so, this text presumably antedates C.271 and C.280 in which he is described as patron. It may be, however, that this is a different Marcellinus, possibly the quaestor of 75 BCE, DPRR Corn2071; see further Reynolds, art.cit.
