Quintus Volusius Saturninus (consul 92)

Quintus Volusius Saturninus was a Roman Senator who lived in the Roman Empire in the second half of the 1st century and the first half of the 2nd 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 92,[3] during the reign of Roman emperor Domitian. He contributed to the drafting of the Roman army for war with Dacia under Roman emperor Trajan and probably around 119, Saturninus became a member of the Arval Brethren. One of the consuls of 174, Quintus Volusius Flaccus Cornelianus may have been his son or grandson.
