Gaius Luccius Telesinus

Gaius Luccius Telesinus was a Roman senator during the first century CE. He was consul in 66 with Gaius Suetonius Paulinus. In Philostratus' Life of Apollonius, Telesinus is depicted as a pious consul conversing with Apollonius of Tyana. He allows Apollonius entry into Rome's temples and that Apollonius' reforms be adopted by the temples. In addition, Apollonius is allowed by Telesinus to live in the temples during his stay in Rome. According to Philostratus, Telesinus continued to study philosophy under Apollonius.
