High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Volusianus was a Roman general and senior official of the mid-Third Century AD who distinguished himself in both the military and the civil spheres of public life. (In the period of the early Empire - i.e. from the accession of Augustus to that of Diocletian - most officials of the highest rank served in both capacities at different times in their careers). Although Volusianus may have begun his career under the aegis of Valerian (or even earlier) he rose to prominence in the reign of Gallienus and was obviously one of that Emperor's most trusted (and trustworthy) aides at a time when the Licinnian dynasty was in urgent need of such support. It may not be without significance that Volusianus seems to have been an Etruscan or, at least, had strong connections with that region of Italy like the Emperors Valerian and Gallienus who advanced his career.
