From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gaius Atinius Labeo was tribune of the plebs in 196 BC, and carried a bill authorizing five colonies. He also joined with the tribune Quintus Marcius Ralla in vetoing the attempt of the consul, Marcus Claudius Marcellus, to prevent peace with Philip. [1]

In 195 BC, Atinius was praetor peregrinus. He may have been the author of the lex Atinia de usucapione. [2] [3]

Atinius seems to have been a different man from the Gaius Atinius Labeo who was praetor in Sicilia in 190 BC, and the Gaius Atinius who was praetor in Hispania Ulterior in 188. [4] [5]
