Caecina
3. CAECINA of Volaterrae, a friend of Octavianus, sent by the latter to Cicero in n. 100.44. (Cic. Att. 16.8.) Cicero speaks of him as "Caecinam quendam Volaterranum," which would seem to shew that he could not have been the same as the preceding, nor even his son, with whom also Cicero was well acquainted. (Cic. Fam. 6.5.) This Caecina was sent by Octavianus with proposals to Antony in 41. (Appian, App. BC 5.60.)
