Flavius Antoninus Messala Vivianus[1] (Greek: Άντωνίνος Μεσσάλας Βιβιανός; fl. 459–463) was an administrator of the Eastern Roman Empire.
BiographyEdit
Vivianus was the father of Paulus (Consul in 512) and Adamantius. His full nomenclature is found on a monument from an uncertain province, indicating that he held the ranks of vir illustris and patricius, and that he had been praetorian prefect and consul ordinarius.[2]
