Life He was appointed consul suffectus in the nundinium of 224 or 226, or perhaps of July 235. Titius Clodius was the son of Pupienus, later Emperor, and wife Sextia Cethegilla.Ronald Syme, Emperors and biography: studies in the Historia Augusta (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1971), p. 173

Lucius Clodius Tineius Pupienus Bassus – who assumed the Toga virilis at Rome early in the third century and was made proconsul of Crete and Cyrenaica in 240 A.D.. He married Ovinia Paterna, daughter of Lucius Ovinius Pacatianus and Cornelia Optata Aquilia FlaviaThis reconstruction of the couple's names has since been revised by Settipani, who corrected the praenomen of Optata's husband to M(arcus) and admitted that the couple's (probably Spanish or African) family should be separated from that of the Ovinii/Paterni (Christian Settipani, Continuité gentilice et continuité familiale dans les familles sénatoriales romaines à l’époque impériale: mythe et réalité. Addenda I–III (juillet 2000–octobre 2002), 2002 [Online: http://users.ox. ac.uk/~prosop/publications/volume-two.pdf])., and had a son: Marcus Tineius Ovinius Castus Pulcher – consul suffectus and pontiff before 274 AD.
