Lucius Manlius Vulso Longus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lucius Manlius Vulso Longus (fl. 250s BC) was a consul of ancient Rome, notable as a commander in the First Punic War. During his consulship in 256 BC, he and Marcus Atilius Regulus led the Roman fleet to victory in the Battle of Cape Ecnomus, following which they landed in Africa. Leaving Regulus in sole command, Vulso returned to Rome and received a triumph. He became consul again in 250 BC and blockaded Lilybaeum, but to little effect.
