Marcus Magius Maximus was an eques active during the reign of the emperor Augustus. Maximus was prefect of Roman Egypt from AD 12 to 14. It was thought Maximus had been appointed prefect of Egypt twice -- the only person to hold this office twice -- based almost solely on a problematic passage in Philo's In Flaccum, but John Rea has shown this passage can be read more plausibly in a different way, removing all support for this belief.

dbo:abstract
  • Marcus Magius Maximus (* im 1. Jahrhundert v. Chr.; † im 1. Jahrhundert n. Chr.) war ein römischer Ritter. In den Jahren von 12 bis 13 bekleidete er unter Kaiser Augustus die Statthalterschaft in der kaiserlichen Provinz Ägypten. Aus einer Quelle geht hervor, dass er als praefectus aegypti vermutlich in den Jahren von 4 bis 8 bereits einmal eingesetzt war. Von seinem Lebenslauf ist außerdem bekannt, dass er ansonsten als Prokurator in der kaiserlichen Provinz Hispania citerior gedient hatte. (de)

While prefect of Egypt, Maximus had an obelisk that Ptolemy II Philadelphus had erected as a memorial to his wife and sister Arsinoe II in Alexandria moved to the market-place because it was in the way of the harbor. An inscription from Aeclanum near Beneventum suggests that Magius Maximus was also procurator of Hispania Tarraconensis. However, H. G. Pflaum has argued that the more usual path from procurator of that province was to that of Syria, which would make Maximus' inferred career unusual. (en)
