Granius Marcellus

Granius Marcellus Was the Roman proconsul of Bithynia during 15 AD. He was accused of treason by his quaestor, Caepio Crispinus, and the charge was supported by Romanus Hispo.[1] It is most likely that this accusation was false and was merely levied by the accusers to gain influence with the new emperor Tiberius.
