plebeian, of which very little is known, as there are only two or three persons of this name
mentioned by ancient writers. There is a coin of this gens bearing on the obverse the cognomen
Naso, and on the reverse the inscription L. Axsius L.
F. (Eckhel, v. p. 148); Axsius being instead of Axius, in the same way as we find Maxsumus for Maxumus and Alexsandrea for Alexandrea. We do not know who this
L. Axsius Naso was; as the Axii mentioned by ancient writers have no
cognomen. [AXIUS.]
