Add article description

Tuccianus is a possible name for a governor of Britannia Inferior, a province of Roman Britain around AD 237.[1] He may have governed since the removal of his predecessor Claudius Apellinus in 235 AD.[2] Little else is known of him although the damaged inscription bearing his name does record him adding a building at Carrawburgh under Maximinus.

He might also have been an ancestor of Egnatius Tuccianus,[2] who probably was curator of Dougga under Diocletian.[3]
