Vibulanus
1. Q. Fabius Vibulanus, K. F., consul B. C. 485 with Ser. Cornelius Cossus Maluginensis, carried on war with success against the Volsci and Aequi; but instead of dividing the booty among the soldiers, he sold it, and deposited the money arising from the sale in the public treasury. In this year Sp. Cassius Viscellinus was condemned to death. In B. C. 482 Fabius Vibulanus was consul a second time with C. Julius Julus. Both consuls marched against the Veientes, but as the enemy did not appear in the field, they devastated their land and returned home. In B. C. 480 Fabius fought under his brother Marcus [No. 3] against the Etruscans, and was killed in battle. (Liv. 2.41_43, 46; Dionys. A. R. 8.77, 82, 90, 9.11.)
