Venantius (consul 507)
Venantius (floruit 507) was a Roman politician and consul for the year 507 with Emperor Anastasius I as his colleague.[1]
Venantius was the son of Petrus Marcellinus Felix Liberius.[2] James O'Donnel notes that the "only known relative in the aristocracy" of Liberius – except for Venantius – was Avienus, consul of 501.[3]
