Шаблон:Short description Gnaeus Servilius Caepio (born Шаблон:Circa) was a Roman politician who was consul in 141 BC; his colleague was Quintus Pompeius.Шаблон:Sfn He was the elder brother of one of his immediate successors in the consulship, Quintus Servilius Caepio, and the homonymous son of the consul of 169 BC.Шаблон:Sfn

During his consulship, he was "placed in charge of the investigation of [Lucius] Hostilius Tubulus [one of the praetors for 142 BC] by the senate", who had become "a byword for accepting bribes while presiding over the quaestio de sicariis".Шаблон:Sfn Tubulus was put on trial by Publius Mucius Scaevola who served as tribune of the plebs that year, resulting in Tubulus' departure into exile.Шаблон:Sfn It is unclear what province Gnaeus Caepio received after his consulship; it is possible he was defeated in Macedonia, but more likely stayed in Italy.Шаблон:Sfn

Some time around 138 BC, he joined his brother and some of the Caecilii Metelli in prosecuting his former consular colleague Pompeius for extortion.Шаблон:Sfn He, and his brother, were active lawyers in this period, as noted by Cicero.Шаблон:Sfn Münzer writes in the Realencyclopädie (1942) that Caepio, with a Quintus Metellus, suppressed a slave revolt at Minturnae and Sinuessa as part of an extraordinary command late in 133 BC;[1] Broughton, however, in Magistrates of the Roman Republic (1952) notes no such command.Шаблон:Sfn

He was elected to the censorship of 125 BC with Lucius Cassius Longinus Ravilla. During their term, they constructed the Aqua Tepula.Шаблон:Sfn
