Gaius Porcius Cato (2nd century BCE), was son of Marcus Porcius Cato Licinianus, consul 114 BC, obtained Macedonia as his province, and fought unsuccessfully against the Scordisci. He was accused of extortion in Macedonia, and was sentenced to pay a fine. He afterward went to Tarraco in Spain, and became a citizen of that town.
