    Smallwood dates this consul "Before 116" (Principates of Nerva, Trajan and Hadrian, p. 12), but since all of the consuls from 109 to 116 are known, his date has been accordingly adjusted.

    Vidman (Fasti Ostienses: Edendos, illustrandos, restituendos, curavit (Prague: Academia, 1982), pp. 52, 134f) dates Hirrutus to 158, based on the Fasti Ostienses; Eck (pp. 79 n. 31, 84f) notes there are difficulties with that year and suggests 143, 149 and 150 as possible alternatives. Alföldy notes this pair belong to the last nundinium of an unknown year; he completes the name of Pollio's colleague as "Lucius Iu[nius Victorinus Flavius Caelianus]" (pp. 170f)

    Alföldy, p. 149; however, Eck ("Die Fasti consulares", p. 87) dates his office to the beginning of the reign of Marcus Aurelius.

    Although Alföldy (p. 226) dates Equester to c. 154 based on an inscription (AE 1940, 176), Eck and Weiß subsequently argued ("Tusidius Campester, cos. suff. unter Antoninus Pius, und die Fasti Ostienses der Jahre 141/142 n. Chr.", Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik, 134 (2001), pp. 255f) this range of dates is more likely.
