Marcus Livius Drusus Libo
Marcus Livius Drusus Libo was an ancient Roman consul of the early Roman Empire. He was the son of Lucius Scribonius Libo by an unknown wife and adopted brother of Roman empress Livia. His natural paternal aunt was Scribonia, the second wife of Augustus, as a consequence of which he was a maternal first cousin of Julia Caesaris. Biography He is believed to have been adopted by Marcus Livius Drusus Claudianus, the father of Livia Drusilla, who was the third wife of Augustus. However, as a result of his 'L.f.' filiation attested in Book 54 of the ''Roman History'' of Cassius Dio, it is believed that his adoption was only testamentary (whereby the adoptee is permitted to use, and therefore carry on, the name of the adoptor). The career of Marcus Livius Drusus Libo is largely unknown, except that he was ordinary consul in 15 BC with Lucius Calpurnius Piso. Livius Drusus served as an aedile in 28 BC, shortly before the Pantheon in Rome was completed. Historian Pliny the Elder men ...

Libo Drusus was regarded as a fatuous young man, who had tastes for absurdities. Trial Along with his brother Lucius Scribonius Libo, he was accused of conspiring against the Roman Emperor Tiberius. This included asking a fortune-teller if he would be rich enough to pave the Via Appia, as far as Brundisium or Brindisi with money. Tacitus described the accusations against Libo as 'preposterous' and 'pointless'. The two men were tried in a senatorial court by the Emperor Tiberius. At the trial, Marcus was ill and pleaded for mercy. A maternal relative, Publius Sulpicius Quirinus, defended them and appealed to the Emperor. Tiberius told him to apply to the senate. Tiberiu ...
