1. Octavius Mamilius, of Tusculum, called by Livy " longe princeps Latini nominis," was the person to whom Tarquinius Superbus gave his daughter, when he was anxious to conciliate the Latins. On the expulsion of the Tarquins from Rome, Superbus took refuge with his father-in-law, who, according to the beautiful lay preserved by Livy, roused the Latin people against the infant republic, and perished in the great battle at the lake Regillus, by the hands of T. Herminius, whom he also slew. (Liv. 1.49, 2.15, 19, 20; Dionys. A. R. 4.45, 5.4_6.12; Cic. de Nat. Deor. 2.2, ad Att. 9.10.)
2. L. Mamilius, dictator or chief magistrate at Tusculum in B. C. 460, marched in that year unsummoned to the assistance of Rome when it was attacked by Herdonius. For his services on this occasion he was rewarded two years afterwards with the Roman franchise. (Liv. 3.18, 29; Dionys. A. R. 10.16.)
3. C. Mamilius, plebeian aedile, B. C. 207. (Liv. 27.36.)
The name of a distinguished family in Tusculum. It was to a member of this family, Octavius Mamilius, that Tarquinius betrothed his daughter; and on his expulsion from Rome his son-in-law roused the Latin people against the infant Republic, and perished in the great battle at Lake Regillus. The Mamilii afterwards removed to Rome.
