Gaius Fonteius Agrippa was the name of two related people in Roman history:
Gaius Fonteius Agrippa was one of the four accusers of
Marcus Scribonius Libo in 16 AD.[1][2] Agrippa profited financially from the accusation, as he was rewarded with a share of Libo's property after the man committed suicide. As a result of this prosecution, he was also made
praetor in 17 AD.[3] He is again mentioned in 19 AD, as offering his daughter for a
vestal virgin, in competition with the daughter of Domitius Pollio, to replace Occia who had recently died. As Agrippa had been recently divorced, Pollio's daughter won the honor. Even still, as a consolation the emperor
Tiberius gave Agrippa's daughter a million
sestertii for her
dowry.[4][5]
