The gens Staia was an obscure
plebeian family at
ancient Rome. Few members of this
gens are mentioned by ancient writers, but a number are known from inscriptions. The most illustrious of the Staii was
Lucius Staius Murcus,
governor of
Syria in 44 BC, and a military commander of some ability who served under several leading figures of the period.[1][2]
Origin
The
nomenStaius is of
Oscan origin, and belongs to a large class of gentilicia formed using the suffix -aius. The first of the Staii appearing in history was a
Samnite, as were many of the other Staii known from inscriptions.[3][4] The nomen is frequently confused with that of Statius.
Praenomina
The earliest Staii bore Oscan praenomina, such as Minatus and Ovius, but in subsequent generations they bore praenomina more typical at Rome, including Numerius and Tiberius. In
imperial times, the chief names used by the Staii were Lucius, Marcus, and Gaius, the most common praenomina at all periods of Roman history. They occasionally used other common names, such as Publius, Gnaeus, and Sextus.

^His correct nomenclature is not certain; in different editions of Livy, his name is given alternately as Staius or Statius Minatius or Minacius. Both Statius and Minatus are Oscan praenomina; Statius is also a gentile name, as is Staius. Pauly-Wissowa regards Minatus Staius as the most likely possibility, in part because a later inscription mentions a person with precisely this name.
