Rome (ancient), Italy (?-476)Comments
The gens Veturia, anciently called Vetusia, was a patrician family at Rome, which also had plebeian branches. The Veturii are mentioned in the early times of the Republic, as one of them, Publius Veturius Geminus Cicurinus, was consul in the eleventh year of the Republic in 499 BC. The Veturii rarely occur in later times of the Republic.
