Lucius Cluentius was a general of the
Pompeii forces. Lucius Cluentius, called
Aulus Cluentius by Eutropius,
[Eutropius, Breviarium Historiae Romanae, V, 3.] was one of the Italian generals during the Social War. He commanded the Pompeiian troops against
Sulla, and was at first victorious, but was subsequently defeated by Sulla in 89 BC. He, along with 20,000 of his men were killed after being chased to the walls of
Nola, having been refused entry by its inhabitants.
