Gaius Licinius Geta
Gaius Licinius Geta was a Roman Senator who was elected Roman consul in 116 BC.Biography
Not much is known about the early career of Geta, who was born into the Plebeian gens Licinia. By 119 BC, he had been elected to the rank of Praetor, and this was followed by his election as consul in 116 BC. After his tenure in office, Geta was expelled from the Senate in 115 BC along with 31 other senators by the order of the two Censors Lucius Caecilius Metellus Diadematus and Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus.
At a subsequent census, Geta was reinstated as a senator. He was later himself elected as Censor in 108 BC, alongside his consular colleague Quintus Fabius Maximus Eburnus. During their censorship, they reappointed Marcus Aemilius Scaurus as princeps senatus.
