Gaius Furius Pacilus (consul 412 BC)

This article is about the consul of 412 BC. For other people named Gaius Furius Pacilus, see Gaius Furius Pacilus Fusus.

Gaius Furius Pacilus was a consul of the Roman Republic in 412 BC.[1]

Furius belonged to the Furia gens, a patrician family which was at its height of its power at this time in the Republic. Furius' father was Gaius Furius Pacilus Fusus, consul in 441 BC. Furius had no known children, but the later Gaius Furius Pacilus, consul in 251 BC, is most likely a descendant. The Pacili relationship to the other Furii is unknown, but there is a possibility, considering his father's cognomen, that the Furii Fusi belong to the same branch.[2]
