(d. 129 BC)
Roman general. He was born 185/184 BC, son of Lucius Aemilus Paulus, conqueror of Macedonia, and Papiria and was adopted by Publius Cornelius Scipio, a son of the conqueror of Hannibal. He was consul in 147 BC and led the campaign that destroyed Carthage in 146 BC. He visited Alexandriain 140/139 BC as part of a Roman delegation to the East and met with Ptolemy VIII.
