Ferreolus Of Rodez
Ferreolus, also called Ferreolus of Rodez (born c. 485) was a Gallo-Roman senator from Narbonne, then ''Narbo'', who later lived in Rodez where his family had also held Trevidos, a villa estate near Segodunum, since the mid-fifth century at least. Life Ferreolus was the son of Tonantius Ferreolus of Nimes and his wife Industria of Narbo. He was evidently the senator and relative, Ferreolus, who was reported by Apollinaris of Valence in a letter to Avitus of Vienne to have visited him in around 520.Heinzelmann, 1982, p. 609.

Gallo-Roman
Gallo-Roman culture was a consequence of the Romanization of Gauls under the rule of the Roman Empire. It was characterized by the Gaulish adoption or adaptation of Roman culture, language, morals and way of life in a uniquely Gaulish context. The well-studied meld of cultures in Gaul gives historians a model against which to compare and contrast parallel developments of Romanization in other, less-studied Roman provinces. ''Interpretatio romana'' offered Roman names for Gaulish deities such as the smith-god Gobannus, but of Celtic deities only the horse-patroness Epona penetrated Romanized cultures beyond the confines of Gaul. The barbarian invasions beginning in the late third century forced upon Gallo-Roman culture fundamental changes in politics, in the economic underpinning, in military organization. The Gothic settlement of 418 offered a double loyalty, as Western Roman authority disintegrated at Rome. The plight of the highly Romanized governing class is examined by ...

Agricola (consul 421)
Agricola (full name possibly Julius Agricola; 365–421) was a West Roman statesman who served twice as praetorian prefect and became consul for 421. Life He was from Gaul Narbo.Martindale & Morris (1980), p. 36 His familial relations are unclear: the names of Agricola's parents are unknown, as is the name of his wife, and the names of his children. He may have had a son named Nymphidius. He was the grandfather of Magnus, consul in 460. He was also a relative, perhaps even the father, of the emperor Avitus (455–456). He served twice as praetorian prefect. His first tenure was sometime before 418, but the exact circumscription is unknown; it was most probably in the Western half of the empire, however.

Ennoius
Rome appointed governors of Africa from its conquest of Carthage in 146 BC until the province was lost to the Vandals in AD 439. 146–100 BC Unless otherwise noted, names of governors in Africa and their dates are taken from T.R.S. Broughton, ''The Magistrates of the Roman Republic'', (New York: American Philological Association, 1951, 1986), vol. 1, and vol. 2 (1952). Inscriptional evidence is less common for this period than for the Imperial era, and names of those who held a ''provincia'' are usually recorded by historians only during wartime or by the ''Fasti Triumphales''. After the defeat of Carthage in 146 BC, no further assignments to Africa among the senior magistrates or promagistrates are recorded until the Jugurthine War (112–105 BC), when the command against Jugurtha in Numidia became a consular province. * P.
