Capitolinus, in his life of Marcus Aurelius, mentions Calpurnius 

 Agricola, as a legate in Britain. From the language used by Capi- 

 tolinus, it may, I think, be inferred, with some probability, that this 

 governor was sent to the island in A.D. 162. 



Mr. "Wright, The Celt, the Roman, and the Saxon, p. 100, 2nd 

 ed., states, with regard to this Emperor : — 



" The Roman Province was invaded on the accession of Marcus Aurelius, in 

 161 ; but the invaders were checked by a new proprsetor, Aufidius Victorinus." 



He, accordingly, places him in his list of Roman Governors, p. 

 488. There is, however, no authority for this statement. Aufidius 

 Victorinus was legate in Germany, not in Britain ; and Capitolinus 

 distinctly states, that " Calpurnius Agricola was sent against the 

 Britons, Aufidius Victorinus against the Chatti." 



Calpurnius Agricola is named on an altar, found at Caervoran 

 {Magna), Northumberlandshire, and given by Horsley, Brit. Rom.y 

 n. liii. : —
