Lucius Volusius Saturninus (consul 87)

Lucius Volusius Saturninus was a Roman Senator who lived in the 1st century.

Saturninus was a Roman of Patrician status.[1] He was a son and among the four children born to the Politician Quintus Volusius Saturninus from his wife Nonia Torquata,[2] who was born and raised in Rome.

Saturninus served as an ordinary consul in 87,[3] as the colleague of the Roman emperor Domitian. According to inscriptional evidence, his wife was a Patrician woman called Licinia Cornelia.[1][4] Licinia and Saturninus had a son called Lucius Volusius Torquatus Vestinus, who served as a consul in 112, perhaps as a suffect consul.[5]
