1. Sp. Nautius Rutilus, is first mentioned by Dionysius in B. C. 493, as one of the most distinguished of the younger patricians at the time of the secession of the plebeians to the Sacred Mount. He was consul in B. C. 488 with Sex. Furius Medullinus Fusus, in which year Coriolanus marched against Rome. (Dionys. A. R. 6.69, 8.16, &c.; Liv. 2.39.)
