Augur in 195 BC, suffect praetor peregrinus in 180 BC, during his consulate in 177 BC, he set out to fight against the Istrians,[2] but failed to perform the proper ceremonies and was forced to return to Rome.[3] Setting out again, he defeated the Istrians and moved on to fight the Ligurians, recovering the town of Mutina.[4]
In 169 BC, he was elected censor with Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus, his former co-consul. Their censorship was quite severe and, as a result, they were impeached. They were acquitted due to Gracchus's popularity with the people.[5] Later, in 167 BC, he went as part of an embassy to Macedon.[6] In that year, he died.[7]
