Family
Maluginensis was from the patrician Cornelii Maluginenses, one of the oldest attested branches of the decemvir in 450 BC, and decemvir with consular power between 450 and 449 BC).[3]
Biography
In 485 BC, he was elected consul with
Kaeso Fabius Vibulanus and Lucius Valerius Potitus Publicola,[6] and was put to death.[7] The consuls launched raids into the lands of the Veii, with Vibulanus winning a new victory against the Volsci and the Aequi. Instead of dividing the plunder amongst the soldiers, which was the traditional practice, Vibulanus offered all of it to the public treasury, which made him very unpopular among the people and the soldiers.[5][8]
He later became Sextus Quinctilius Varus and the consul suffect who replaced him, Spurius Furius Medullinus Fusus.[2][10][11]
