Pravim imenom Gneius Baebius cnei filius Tamphilus Vala Nvmonianvs bio je italski monetarni službenik kojeg je posvojio Gnej Bebije Tamfil. Nakon uspona po rimskim službama između 27. i 25. imenovan je prokonzulom Ilirika. Za njegovo doba izgrađen je antički Jader te je on patron grada i «graditelj» foruma. Ime mu je 1984. pronađeno na jednom zdencu u Zadru, a prije toga spominjao se na jednom natpisu u Rimu pronađenom 1862. godine. U Zadru je pronađen i jedan kip iz tog razdoblja za koji se smatra da prikazuje upravo Valu.
