Lucius Manlius Acidinus (fl. late 3rd century BC) was a member of the

Hasdrubal, and was the first to send to Rome intelligence of the defeat of the latter.[3] In 206 he and Lucius Cornelius Lentulus had the province of Hispania entrusted to them with proconsular power. In the following year he conquered the Ausetani and Ilergetes, who had rebelled against the Romans in consequence of the absence of Scipio. He did not return to Rome until 199, but was prevented by the tribune Publius Porcius Laeca from entering the city in an ovation, which the senate had granted him.[4]
