Lurius commanded the right wing of the Caesariaa fleet at the battle of Actium, B. C. 31. (D. C. 48.30; Veil. Pat. 2.85; comp. Plut. Ant. 65, 66; Appian, App. BC 5.55.) No family of the Lurii is known: but there is extant a coin of the moneyers of Augustus bearing on its obverse the legend " P. LURIUS AGRIPPA III. VIR. A. A. A. F. F." (Ursin. Farm. Rom.; Vaillant, "LURII.")
