Icon of person Lucius Caecilius Metellus Denter

Lucius Caecilius Metellus Denter was consul in 284 BC, and praetor the year after. In this capacity, he fell in the war against the Senones and was succeeded by Manius Curius Dentatus. Fischer, in his Römische Zeittafeln, lists him as praetor and also as dying in 285 BC; however, the following year, he has him again as consul. Wilhelm Drumann denies the identity of the consul and the praetor, because it was not customary for a person to hold the praetorship the year after his consulship. Read more on Wikipedia
