A man whom Cicero speaks of as "omni carens cupiditate," was praetor B. C. 44 (Cic. Philipp. 3.10). He seems to be the same as Naso, the augur, whom Cicero mentioned in a letter in the preceding year (ad Att. 12.17). The gentile name of Naso does not occur.
[Actorius.]
a tribune of the praetorian troops, A. D. 69 (Tac. Hist. 1.20). He may be the same person as the L. Antonius Naso, who, as we learn from coins, was procurator of Bithynia in the reign of Vespasian. (Eckhel, vol. ii. p. 404.)
only mentioned on coins, a specimen of which is annexed. The obverse represents a woman's head surmounted with a helmet, with NASO. S. C.; the reverse, Diana in a chariot drawn by stags, with one dog before her and two behind her, and the legend L. AXSIVS. L. F.
an intimate friend of Pliny and Tacitus, both of whom interested themselves much in his success, when he became a candidate for the public offices of the state (Plin. Ep. 6.6, 9). One of Pliny's letters (4.6) is addressed to him.
whose heres was L. Flavius, praetor designatus in B. C. 59. (Cic. ad Q. Fr. 1.2.3.)
is recommended by Cicero to the notice and favour of Acilius, in B. C. 46. (Cic. Fam. 13.33.)
[Ovidius.]
one of the conspirators against Caesar, B. C. 44. (Appian, App. BC 2.113.)
who had previously been praetor, was sent to Smyrna in A. D. 26, to superintend the erection of a temple to Tiberius (Tac. Ann. 4.56).
the judex quaestionis in the trial of Cluentius, B. C. 66. Since Cicero in one passage calls him Q. Naso (pro Cluent. 100.53), and in another Q. Voconius (Ibid. 100.54), Garatoni and Klotz, in their notes upon Cicero's oration, make two different persons out of Q. Voconius Naso, namely Q. Voconius, the judex quaestionis, and Q. Naso, the praetor. But Madvig has shown satisfactorily (de Ascon. p. 121), that Cicero refers only to one person, the judex quaestionis, pointing out moreover that the judices quaestionum were appointed to preside in those cases which the praetors, from their limited number, could not attend to, and that accordingly a praetor and a judex quaestionis would not be in the same court. This opinion of Madvig is also adopted by Zumpt (ad Cic. Ver. p. 234). Cicero in his oration for Flaccus, B. C. 59, speaks (100.21) of Q. Naso, as having been praetor, but the year of his praetorship is unknown. (Orelli, Onom. Tull. p. 649.)
