Provincial Governor: true
Provincial Governor: praeses provinciae Moesiae Inferioris (284-302 AD?)
Praetorian rank: true
Observations: As in the case of Silvius Silvanus (ID 9021) this individual is a governor coming from the equestrian order. He occupied this position probably during the reign of Diocletian, before the province was divided into Moesia Secunda and Scythia. The title praeses suggests that he was in charge of the civic administration, and not of the military administration, which was in the responsibility of a dux. The cognomen of the governor is of Thracian origin, cognomen which has been attested on other inscriptions from Moesia Inferior as well.
