Gaius Julius Bassus
Gaius Julius Bassus (c. 45 – aft. 101 AD) was a Roman senator. He was quaestor, and later governor of Bithynia and Pontus for the term 100/101;[1] two inhabitants of that public province indicted him in the Senate for corruption, and Pliny the Younger successfully defended him from these charges.[2]

His older brother was Gaius Julius Severus, a Tribune in Legio VI Ferrata.
