Lucius Cornelius Sulla (consul 5 BC)

Lucius Cornelius Sulla was a Roman senator of the Augustan age. He was ordinary consul as the colleague of Augustus in 5 BC.[1] The only other office attested for him was as a member of the Septemviri epulonum, which he was co-opted into after his praetorship.[2]

Ronald Syme believed he was a son of Publius Cornelius Sulla, designated consul for 65 BC, which made him a grandnephew of the Roman dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla.[3] The son of Lucius, Cornelius Sulla, was expelled from the Senate by Tiberius in AD 17.[4]
