Libo Rupilius Frugi

Libo Rupilius Frugi (flourished 1st century, died 101), whose full name may have been Lucius Scribonius Libo Rupilius Frugi Bonus, was a Roman suffect consul and an ancestor to Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius.

According to Augustan History, Frugi was of consular rank and refers to him as a former consul. Frugi served as a suffect consul in 88. His relative Calpurnius Piso Crassus Frugi Licinianus had been consul a year earlier. He was the son of Marcus Licinius Crassus Frugi who had been consul in 64 and grandson of Marcus Licinius Crassus Frugi who had been consul in 27 and noblewoman Scribonia. Pliny the Younger reports him speaking aggressively in the Roman Senate in 101.

Frugi married the niece of the Roman emperor Trajan, Salonina Matidia as her third husband, as from her previous two marriages Matidia had two daughters Vibia Sabina and Mindia Matidia or Matidia Minor. Frugi with Matidia had a daughter called Rupilia Faustina. The noblewoman Rupilia Faustina became the paternal grandmother of Marcus Aurelius.
