Lucius Cassius Longinus was a consul of the Roman Republic in 107 BC. His colleague was Gaius Marius. As a praetor in 111 BC, he was sent to Numidia to bring Jugurtha to Rome, promising him safe conduct. Jugurtha valued this pledge as much as the public pledge for his safety. In his consulship with Marius, he ventured to Gallia Narbonensis to oppose the Cimbri. He was killed at the Battle of Burdigala (modern day Bordeaux) against the Tigurini, a pagus of the Celtic Helvetii. (According to 'Dictionary of Battles & Sieges: A-E' by Tony Jaques, page 15, Tigurini under Divicus ambushed Lucius at Aginnum, modern-day Agen on the River Garonne, where he was routed and killed.)
