Aemilius Paullus
L. Aemilius Paullus Macedonicus served as aedile, augur, and praetor in 191. As consul for 181, he conquered the Ligurians. In a short campaign of 15 days, Aemilius defeated Perseus at Pyd0a, near Mount Olympus on 22 June 168. He was censor in 164, and died in 160. Despite the great wealth his conquests brought Rome, Aemilius Paullus left barely enough to repay his wife's dowry when he died.
