Woman Of The Chatti
The Woman of the Chatti ( la, Chatta mulier), or the Chattian seeress, is an alleged Seeress (Germanic), Germanic seeress of the Chattian tribe who according to Suetonius prophesied that Roman emperor, Roman Emperor Vitellius (ruled in 69 AD) would reign for a long time if he survived his mother Sextilia. This would have led to Vitellius murdering his aged mother by poison or starvation. No such seeress is mentioned by other sources, and so it may have been a malevolent rumour to justify the coup d'état by Vespasian. Vitellius did however stay in Cologne near Chattian territory earlier in the year when he became emperor, and may have consulted with a seeress from that tribe. Matricide Around 100 AD, Suetonius wrote that the Roman emperor Vitellius trusted in the prophecies of his Seeress (Germanic), seeress, from the Chatti tribe ( (Vit. 14,5)). This was one of the vices attributed to him, and he was also described as a cruel and gluttonous emperor. His seeress promised him a ...

Sextilii
The gens Sextilia was a plebeian family at ancient Rome. The first member of this gens to achieve prominence was Gaius Sextilius, tribuni militum consulari potestate, consular tribune in 379 BC.

Origin The Nomen gentilicium, nomen ''Sextilius'' is a patronymic surname, derived from the praenomen ''Sextus (praenomen), Sextus''. The nomen of the Sextia gens, gens Sextia was derived from the same name, much as the praenomen ''Quintus (praenomen), Quintus'' gave rise to the gentes ''Quinctia gens, Quinctia'' and ''Quinctilia gens, Quinctilia''.

Vitellius
Aulus Vitellius (; ; 24 September 1520 December 69) was Roman emperor for eight months, from 19 April to 20 December AD 69. Vitellius was proclaimed emperor following the quick succession of the previous emperors Galba and Otho, in a year of civil war known as the Year of the Four Emperors. Vitellius was the first to add the honorific cognomen '' Germanicus'' to his name instead of ''Caesar'' upon his accession. Like his direct predecessor, Otho, Vitellius attempted to rally public support to his cause by honoring and imitating Nero who remained widely popular in the empire. Originally from Campania, likely from Nuceria Alfaterna, Suetonius, Vitellius, 4. he was born to the Vitellia gens, a relatively obscure family in ancient Rome. He was a noble companion of Tiberius' retirement on Capri and there befriended Caligula. He was elected consul in 48, and served as proconsular governor of Africa in either 60 or 61. In 68, he was chosen to command the army of Germania Inferior by ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Publius Sextilius
Publius Sextilius was a Roman praetor (92 BC?) and governor of Africa during the civil wars between Sulla and Marius. As governor in 88 BC, he refused Marius and his followers asylum in Africa. Marius in Africa Plutarch presents a highly colored version of how Sextilius rejected Marius and furnishes a moral: Little is known of this Sextilius. It is likely that he belonged to the senatorial family of Sextilii who used the ''praenomen'' Publius, among them a 2nd-century B.C. praetor from whom a letter fragment survives. At one time, numismatic evidence was interpreted as referring to Sextilius as praetor and propraetor, but the coin has since been determined to belong to the Augustan period. Before the arrival of Marius in Africa, Sextilius had taken a neutral position in the civil war. He had allowed some of Marius's allies to join up with Hiempsal II, king of Numidia, who at that time was attempting to gain the confidence of the Marians while acting on behalf of Sulla. If S ...

Lucius Vitellius The Younger
Lucius Vitellius (died December 69) was a Roman Empire, Roman Roman senate, senator who lived in the 1st century. He was the second son of Lucius Vitellius (consul 34), Lucius Vitellius and Sextilia, and younger brother of emperor Vitellius, Aulus Vitellius.

His first wife in 46 or 47 was Junia Calvina, a descendant of the Emperor Augustus, but they divorced before 49.

This was carried out through the agency of Lucius Vitellius, who was Junia's husband.The second wife of Vitellius was Triaria. He had no issue from either of his marriages.

Triumvir Monetalis
The ''triumvir monetalis'' ( ''tresviri'' or ''triumviri monetales'', also called the , abbreviated IIIVIR A. A. A. F. F.) was a moneyer during the Roman Republic and the Empire, who oversaw the minting of coins. In that role, he would be responsible for the "ordinary coinage" during the republican period (contrasted to extraordinary coinage, usually minted by other magistrates, done on an ''ad hoc'' basis). Roman moneyers almost always acted together as a board of three, hence their title ''triumvir''. Over the course of the late Republic from 139 BC onwards, the moneyers started to mint more personalised coins which advertised their lineages, achievements of ancestors, and other leaders. From Caesar's dictatorship onwards, however, their freedom to do so diminished, before the empire's emergence coincided with the minting only of coins depicting the emperor and the imperial family. The office continued into the imperial period as an administrative post. Duties and select ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The fourth and last emperor who reigned in the Year of the Four Emperors, he founded the Flavian dynasty that ruled the Empire for 27 years. His fiscal reforms and consolidation of the empire generated political stability and a vast Roman building program.

While Vespasian besieged Jerusalem during the Jewish rebellion, emperor Nero committed suicide and plunged Rome into a year of civil war known as the Year of the Four Emperors.

A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in Earth's orbit, its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar climate, subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring (season), spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropics, tropical and subtropics, subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the tropics#Seasons and climate, seasonal tropics, the annual wet season, wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar.
