Quintus Cassius Longinus (died 47 bc, at the mouth of the Ebro River, Tarraconensis) was a Roman official whose tyrannical government of Spain greatly injured Julius Caesar’s cause in Spain during the civil war (49–45) between Caesar and the Optimates. He was either a brother or a cousin of the famous assassin of Caesar.
As tribune in 49, he supported Caesar, who made him governor of Farther Spain. Cassius’ oppression of the Spanish provincials led to a revolt at Corduba (Córdoba), which he put down with merciless severity. Some of his troops then revolted (48) and proclaimed a new governor. Cassius was allowed to leave the province but died in a shipwreck at the mouth of the Ebro River.
