Rufius Albinus was the son of
Gaius Ceionius Rufius Volusianus who was consul in 311 and 314 before being exiled. In 335 Rufius Albinus was appointed
consul posterior alongside
Julius Constantius. Then from 30 December 335 until 10 March 337, he was
praefectus urbi of
Rome. Rufius Albinus was referred to as
philosophus, and may have been the author of works on logic and geometry. He may also have been the author of a history of Rome in verse. In around 337 the
Senate issued a decree honouring him for his services with a statue. Possibly married to Lampadia, they were perhaps the parents of
Gaius Ceionius Rufius Volusianus Lampadius,
praefectus urbi of Rome in 365. ==Sources==
