Lucius Cornelius Lentulus (consul 130 BC)
The gens Cornelia was one of the greatest patrician houses at ancient Rome. For more than seven hundred years, from the early decades of the Republic to the third century AD, the Cornelii produced more eminent statesmen and generals than any other gens. At least seventy-five consuls under the Republic were members of this family, beginning with Servius Cornelius Maluginensis in 485 BC. Together with the Aemilii, Claudii, Fabii, Manlii, and Valerii, the Cornelii were almost certainly numbered among the ''gentes maiores'', the most important and powerful families of Rome, who for centuries dominated the Republican magistracies. All of the major branches of the Cornelian gens were patrician, but there were also plebeian Cornelii, at least some of whom were descended from freedmen.''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', vol. I, p. 855 ("Cornelia Gens"). Origin The origin of the Cornelii is lost to history, but the nomen ''Cornelius'' may be formed from the hyp ...

Family and political career Born sometime before 97 BC, son of a Publius Lentulus, his origins are otherwise unknown, though he was most likely a member of the Patrician (ancient Rome), patrician Cornelii Lentuli branch of the gens Cornelia. Details of Crus' younger years are not known. In 72 BC, Caesar's man Balbus acquired his Roman citizenship for service under Pompeius against Quintus Sertorius in Spain. On the basis of the Roman names he took – Lucius Cornelius Balbus – and on the basis of later letters to Cicero, it is possible that both Balbus ''major'' and ''minor'' obtained citizenship with the sponsorship of L. Cornelius Lentulus Crus, who may then have been serving with Pompeius as a legatus, legate (Pompeius was there 76 BC to 71 BC; had Crus be ...

Lucius Cornelius Lentulus Cruscellio
Lucius Cornelius Lentulus (probably Lucius Cornelius Lentulus Cruscellio) (fl. 1st century BC) was a suffect consul in 38 BC, in the late Roman Republic. Biography A member of the Patrician gens Cornelia, Cruscellio was the son of Lucius Cornelius Lentulus Crus. From September 20 through to October 23, 54 BC, he was the prosecutor who brought charges under the '' Lex Cornelia de maiestate'' against Aulus Gabinius, the ex-consul of 58 BC. In 44 BC, he was possibly elected to the office of Praetor, and he was one of those who declared that the Senate’s allotment of provinces for the following year (during the meeting of November 28, 44 BC) was not binding. Probably as a result of his father's support for Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus during the civil war, Cruscellio was proscribed by the ruling ''triumvirs''. Therefore, in 42 BC, he fled to Sextus Pompey in Sicily. Sextus gave him a naval command as a Legatus, probably a ''legatus pro praetore''. Probably after the Pact of Misenum in 39 ...
