Titius Sabinus, a distinguished Roman eques, was a friend of Germanicus and was consequently hated by Sejanus. To please this powerful favorite, Latinius Latiaris, who was a friend of Sabinus, induced the latter to speak in unguarded terms both of Sejanus and Tiberius and then betrayed his confidence. Sabinus was executed in prison. His body was thrown out upon the Gemonian steps and cast into the River Tiber. The ancient writers mention the fidelity of the dog of Sabinus, which would not desert his master and which tried to bear up his corpse when thrown into the Tiber. (Gentry and wealthy citizens)

Marcus Caelius Sabinus, a Roman jurist who succeeded Gaius Cassius Longinus (He was not the Sabinus from whom the Sabiniani took their name). He was named consul by Otho in AD 69, an appointment which Vitellius did not rescind on his accession. He wrote a work, Ad Edictum Aedilium Curulium. In the first of these two passages Gellius mentions the work of Caelius, and Caelius here quotes Labeo. Nearly the same words are given by Ulpian, but he quotes only Sabinus and omits Labeo's name. In the second passage Gellius quotes the words of Caelius as to the practice of slaves being sold with the pileus on the head when the vendor would not warrant them. Though the work on the Edict is not quoted there, it seems certain that this extract must be from this book of Caelius. It appears that Caelius must also have written other works. There are no extracts from Caelius in the Digest, but he is often cited, sometimes as Caelius Sabinus, sometimes by the name of Sabinus alone. (Politicians)
