C. Cluvius Saxula was moneyer between 169 BC and 158 BC. He was perhaps son of the C. Cluvius Saxula who was Praetor Peregrinus in 173 BC.
Gens Cluvia was a Roman family during the later Republic, and early imperial times. C. Cluvius Saxula senior was the first of the family to achieve prominence.
The Cluvii do not appear to have been divided into distinct families. Individual members of the gens bore the personal cognomina Saxula, a little rock, and Rufus, red or reddish.
