* [[Marcus Livius Salinator|Marcus Livius M. f. M. n. Salinator]], was consul during the [[Second Illyrian War]], and despite [[Roman triumph|triumphing]] over the enemy, he was afterward charged with misappropriating the spoils of war, and sent into exile. During the [[Second Punic War]] he was induced to return and resume his seat in the [[Roman Senate|Senate]], although he rarely spoke, except to speak on behalf of his kinsman, Marcus Livius Macatus. Consul for the second time in 207, he and his colleague, Gaius Claudius Nero, defeated and slew [[Hasdrubal Barca|Hasdrubal]], the brother of [[Hannibal]], before the two could unite their forces, and he triumphed for the second time. He was appointed [[Roman dictator|dictator]] the following year to host the elections, and [[Roman censor|censor]] in 204, but he and his colleague quarreled severely. He may have been the adoptive father of [[Marcus Livius Drusus Aemilianus]].<ref>Polybius, iii. 19, xi. 1–3.</ref><ref>Zonaras, viii. 20, ix. 9.</ref><ref>Appian, ''Bellum Illyricum'', 8; ''Bellum Hannibalicum'', 52, 53.</ref><ref name="AV DVI 50"/><ref>Livy, xxii. 35, xxvii. 34, xxix. 37, xxvii. 34, 35, 40, 46–49, xxviii. 9, 10, 46, xxix. 5, 13, 37, xxxvi. 36.</ref><ref>Orosius, iv. 18.</ref><ref>Eutropius, iii. 18.</ref><ref>Valerius Maximus, ii. 9. § 6, vi. 2. § 2., vii. 2. § 6, vii. 4. § 4, ix. 3. § 1.</ref><ref>Cicero, ''Brutus'', 18.</ref><ref>Münzer, Friedrich, Ridley, T.
