Lucius Valerius Antias

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Lucius Valerias Antias was a commander of ancient Rome. He was sent by Publius Valerius Flaccus with five ships in 215 BCE to convey to Rome the Carthaginian ambassadors, who had been captured by the Romans on their way to Philip V of Macedon.[1]

Some historians have speculated that

Valerii.[2] Other historians think it plausible this Antias existed, and may have served with Flaccus as a family dependent.[3]
