    Note: Gaius Asinius Pollio was a Roman senator and orator active during the Principate. He was ordinary consul for 23 with Gaius Antistius Vetus as his colleague.[1][2] He was the oldest son of Gaius Asinius Gallus; his brother was Marcus Asinius Agrippa, consul in 25.[3] Pollio's mother was Vipsania Agrippina.[4] Through her, he was the half-brother of the younger Drusus.[5] We know from his coins Pollio was proconsular governor of Asia.[6] In 45, Pollio was exiled as an accuser of a conspiracy and later was put to death on orders from Empress Valeria Messalina. The Asinia Pollionis filia mentioned on an inscription from Tusculum may have been his daughter.[7] Pollio was perhaps the father (or brother) of Gaius Asinius Placentinus who lived around the middle of the 1st century.[8]
