Status notes and comments He was 'perpetuus quinquennalis'; an extraordinary position which reflects his considerable prestige.

He represented the 'dendrophori' at the 'taurobolium' of 190 CE, at the occasion of which an altar was set up to commemmorate the event, which was placed on a public location ('locus datus decreto decurionum'). Silvanus paid for the construction of the altar.
