Quintus Caecilius Redditus was a Roman eques who held a number of appointments during the reigns of the Emperors Trajan and Hadrian. He is known in a series of inscriptions.
The earliest known appointment Redditus is known to have held was as commander of Cohors I Montanorum in 102, then stationed in Pannonia.[1] By 12 January 105, he had received another commission, this time as military tribune of the Cohors I Britannica milliaria civium Romanorum, which was stationed in Moesia Superior.[2] We can surmise he was commissioned praefectus of an ala, for an inscription from Troesmis in Moesia Inferior congratulates Redditus on having completed his tres militiae and having been appointed procurator.[3]
A pair of inscriptions attest that Redditus was procurator or governor of Mauretania Tingitana from 120 or before to at least 122.[4] Hadrian or his representative must have found Redittus' service in this appointment acceptable, for an inscription found in Celeia, attests that he was then Procurator Augusti of Noricum.[5]
We lack evidence for the life of Caecilius Redditus after he completed his term in Noricum.
