Ahenobarbus
2. Cn. Domitius Cn. F. L. N. AHENOBARBUS, son of the preceding, was chosen pontifex in B. C. 172, when a young man (Liv. 42.28), and in 169 was sent with two others as commissioner into Macedonia. (44.18.) In 167 he was one of the ten commissioners for arranging the affairs of Macedonia in conjunction with Aemilius Paullus (xlv 17); and when the consuls of 162 abdicated account of some fault in the auspices in their election, he and Cornelius Lentulus were chosen consuls in their stead. (Cic. de Nat. Deor. 2.4, de Div 2.35; Val. Max. 1.1.3.)
