<p> ''''' mem´i ''''' - ''''' us ''''' , ''''' kwin´tus ''''' ( Κόιντος Μέμμιος , <i> ''''' Kóintos ''''' </i> <i> ''''' Mémmios ''''' </i> ): One of the 2 [[Roman]] legates who bore a letter to the Jews after their victory over [[Lysias]] 163 Bc ( 2 [[Maccabees]] 11:34 ). No Quintus Memmius is otherwise known to history, and no Memmius among the list of legates sent to Asia. [[Polybius]] (xxxi. 18) mentions a Quintus and a Canuleius as sent to Egypt, 162 BC, and again (xxxiii. 15) the same Quintus as sent as an ambassador to Rhodes, 153 BC. A T itus Memmius had been an envoy of the senate to [[Achaia]] and [[Macedonia]] before the date of this letter (Livy xliii. 5).
