Ligur, Aelius

tribune of the plebs, B. C. 57, endeavoured by his veto to prevent the passing of the decree of the senate for Cicero's recall. He seems to have been an obscure individual, and, according to Cicero, had assumed a surname to which he had no right. (Cic. pro Sext. 31, 32, 43, pro Dome. 19, de Harusp. Resp. 3.)
