50-51 ROMAN PELOPONNESE I
Remarks: There is no known proconsul of Asia bearing the name Appius; Appius Claudius
Pulcher (27-26 B.C.; cf. Thomasson, 243, no. 2; Rémy, Carrières sénatoriales, 18-19) was
a governor of Bithynia and Pontus; therefore the identification with him seems difficult.

Olympia; one of the honorary inscriptions of the exedra of Herodes Atticus:

Remarks: About this patrician, whose full name was M. Appius Atilius Bradua and who was a
grandfather of Regula from the side of her mother, see P. v. Rohden, RE II 1 (1895)

Zeitalter der Antoninen und der Severer (96-235 η. Chr.) (Mayence 1973) 19, A 44;
Bol, op. cit., 128, n. 424 for his religious offices; cf. FOS, 84 (comments on no. 66)
refered to with the name M. Atilius Metilius Bradua; Settipani, 472-476 with
stemmata. He is often identified with M. Atilius Metilius Bradua (PIR 2 A 1302;
Halfmann, Senatoren, 158 [M. Appius Metilius Bradua] and 156 no. [41]; W. Eck,
Der neue Pauly 2, 214 [Π 8], 5. v. M.A. Metilius Bradua). For the restoration of
Dittenberger and Purgold [υπατον, πρεσβευτήν καί άντιστράτηγον] in 1. 2 see also
PIR, loc. cit.
Dittenberger and Purgold, Sp. 629-630 explain the reasons of accepting Μ(αρκον)
Άππιον Βραδούαν in this inscription, while Thomasson, 16 f., n. 10 prefers
Μ(αρκον) Άτίλιον Βραδούαν, which is accepted by Ameling; Bol, loc. cit., 122, n.
398. His portrait may be preserved, Bol, op.cit., 165-169, no. 34, fig. 73.
Grandfather of Regula (EL 17). For the stemma of the family see Appendix, Stemmata XI, 1. 2. 3.
