Commentary
Caius Cadius Rufus proconsul de la province de Pont-Bythinie en 47-48. Ce type semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
Caius Cadius Rufus, proconsul of the province of Pontus-Bythinia in 47-48. This type seems much rarer than general works suggest.

Historical background
CLAUDIUS
(24/01/41-13/10/54)
Claude was born in 10 BC in Lyon. Became emperor by chance after the assassination of Caligula in 41, he is despite physical flaws a great emperor and a good administrator, but remains dominated by his wives and his freedmen who hold the reality of power. In 50, after his marriage with his niece, Agrippina, he adopted his son Nero to the detriment of Britannicus, his own son born of the union with Messalina. He dies assassinated by Agrippina who serves him a dish of poisoned mushrooms.
