Notes: M. Aebutius Helva, pr in 168 is probably not a descendent of the patrician Aebutii of the early Republic, since families of that time did not use a cognomen, 
thus it is likely that later compilers of the Fasti used the praetor's cognomen on the ancient patrician gens.
An Aebutianus was praefectus praetorio in 187 AD.
