Gaius Nautius Rutilus, son of Spurius, was consul of the Roman Republic.
He was first consul in 475 BC with Publius Valerius Publicola.
He held the consulship a second time in 458 BC with Lucius Minucius Esquilinus Augurinus. During this consulship, he successfully carried on war against the Sabines. In the same year, the Aequi attacked the allied city of Tusculum and defeated his colleague, Minucius. Nautius Rutilus returned to Rome to oversee that the Roman Senate elected a dictator, Cincinnatus, to deal with the invaders.
