The gens Sedatia, occasionally written Sedata, was a plebeian family at ancient Rome, which flourished from the first to the third century. The only member of this gens known to have held a seat in the Roman senate was Marcus Sedatius Severianus, consul suffectus in AD 153.[1] The Sedatii were an influential mercantile family, whose wealth was based on commerce along the Loire, and had interests in Ostia.[2] The social and political rise of the Sedatii parallels the decline of the aristocratic Julii, who had been the leading class in Roman Gaul since the time of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. The likely marriage of Gaius Sedatius Severus and Julia Rufina might have contributed to the ascendency of winemakers and landowners, who became the leading class in Gaul until the Flavians.[3] OriginThe Sedatii seem to have been a Gallic family, which probably obtained Roman citizenship some time during the early Empire. The nomen Sedatius seems to be derived from the name of a Celtic god, Sedatus, of whom little is known, but who is mentioned in a series of inscriptions from the Danubian provinces. The transformation of a theonym into a personal name was typical of Gallic practice, but the development of original gentilicia at this early date was highly unusual. Cassius Dio relates that newly enrolled citizens in the time of Claudius were expected to assume the imperial gentilicium, unless the emperor granted them permission to bear another name, and no exceptions are known prior to the time of Vespasian. Original gentilicia were much more typical of the second century, when such names were very common in the provinces.[4] PraenominaThe only praenomina associated with the Sedatii are Gaius and Lucius, two of the most common names throughout all periods of Roman history. Branches and cognominaThe only distinct family of the Sedatii bore the cognomen Severus, and its derivative, Severianus. Severus, meaning "stern, serious, austere", or "severe", belongs to a class of old Roman surnames, derived from the characteristics and habits of individuals.[5] Members{{Filiation}}Sedatii Severi- Gaius Sedatius Severus, the father of Marcus Sedatius Severianus, was probably born about AD 75.[6][7]
