Notes:

Abbreviation of Aulus is A., not Aul., so Aul. Tullius Iustianus may be an Aulius, though not certain.

Literature

Camodeca, Giuseppe: "I ceti dirigenti di rango senatorio, equestre e decurionale della Campania romana I", Napoli, (2008) p.97 (M. Aulius M.f. Albinus,

q and II vir quinq, 2nd century)

Dobson: Primipilares (1955) p.310 (§448 Aul. Tullius Iustianus, does not consider whether Aulus or Aulius)

Le Bohec: Troisième Légion Auguste (1989)  p.153 (Aulius (not Aulus) Tullius Iustianus, primus pilus III Aug post 226)

Ritterling: Fasti Deutschland (1932) p.134 (M. Aulius Albinus)

Salomies, Olli: "Praenomina Recorded Erroneously in Inscriptions. With an Observation on the Grandfather of Q. Aulius Cerretanus (cos. II 319 BC)",

in Arctos 29, 1995, p.155-161 (he argues that Cerretanus the twice consul and magister equitum is the same person, and that Q.f. Ai.n. is likely the correct

filiation, though earlier in Salomies: Die römische Vornamen, 1987 p.60 he argued for Q.f.Q.n. But now a new inscription has been found of a V. Semini(os) Ai.f.,

thus the unusual praenomen of Cerretanus now has a parallel. Probably his grandfather was not Roman.)

Suolahti, Jaakko: Junior Officers (1955) p.347 (§32 Aulii, from Etruria ?)

Wiseman: New Men (1971) p.286 (Q. Aulius Cerretanus, from Caere ??)
