Aviena (gens)

This page is about a Roman gens. For the fourth century Latin writer, see Avienus.

The gens Aviena was a Roman family during the first century BC. It is known chiefly from a single individual, Gaius Avienus, a military tribune with the tenth legion, who was ignominiously dismissed from the army, on account of misconduct in the African war, in 46 BC.[1][2]
