Background
He is not to be confused with his father who was also called Marcus Fulvius Nobilior and who also served as consul.
Career
He was tribune of the plebs 171 British Columbia, curule aedile 166 British Columbia, the year in which the Andria of Terence was performed, and consul 159 British Columbia. Of the events of his consulship we have no records, but as the triumphal fasti assign him a triumph in the following year over the Eleates, a Ligurian people, he must have carried on war in Liguria.
