Gens Postumia

Gens Postumia adalah keluarga bangsawan Patricius di Romawi Kuno. Sepanjang sejarah Republik, Postumii sering menduduki Magistratus kepala negara Romawi, dimulai dengan Publius Postumius Tubertus, konsul pada 505 SM, tahun kelima Republik. Seperti kebanyakan aristokrasi Romawi kuno, Postumii memudar sementara waktu di bawah Kekaisaran, individu yang menyandang nama Postumius kembali mengisi sejumlah jabatan penting dari abad ke-II M hingga akhir Kekaisaran Barat.^[2]

Nomen Postumius adalah nama marga patronimik, yang berasal dari praenomen Postumus, yang diduga milik nenek moyang gens. Nama itu berasal dari kata sifat Latin, postremus, yang berarti "terakhir" atau "paling belakang," awalnya menunjukkan anak terakhir atau anak bungsu. Tetapi maknanya telah lama dikacaukan dengan makna "anumerta", yang menunjukkan seorang anak yang lahir setelah kematian ayahandanya; kesalahpahaman ini dipupuk oleh fakta bahwa seorang anak anumerta juga harus yang termuda.^[3]
