Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus was the only child of Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus (consul 32 BC) and Aemilia Lepida. His mother was a paternal cousin to triumvir Marcus Aemilius Lepidus. His paternal grandmother was Porcia Catones. He won an honorary triumph for penetrating deeper into Germany than anyone else before him. As a young man he was a famous charioteer. Suetonius describes as "arrogant, cruel, notorious and extravagant." Lucius Domitius held the office of aedile. As praetor and consul, he made married knights and married women star in pantomimes. He enjoyed presenting gladiatorial contests and wild animal hunts. In Emperor Augustus' will he was nominated to purchase Augustus' household possessions.
