Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.
The random article for Friday, 21 August 2020 is Lucius Vitellius the Elder.
Lucius Vitellius Veteris or the Elder (before 7 BC – AD 51) was the youngest of four sons of procurator Publius Vitellius and the only one who did not die through politics. He was consul three times, which was unusual during the Roman empire for someone who was not a member of the Imperial family. The first time was in the year 34 as the colleague of Paullus Fabius Persicus; the second was in 43 as the colleague of the emperor Claudius; the third was in 47 again as the colleague of the emperor Claudius.
