Lanatus
4. L. Meneniuls Agrippae N. Lanatus, T. F., son of No. 2 and grandson of No. 1, was consul in B. C. 440, with Proculus Geganius Macerinus. During their consulship there was a great famine at Rome; and a praefectus annonae was for the first time appointed, in the person of L. Minucius Augurinus [AUGURINUS, No. 5], though it was not till the following year that the great struggle between the patricians and Sp. Maelius came to a head. (Liv. 4.12; Diod. 12.36.)
