Historical background
CONSTANTIUS I
(+306)
Consecration of Constantine I
Constance, the father of Constantine I and the husband of Helen, who became august in 305, went to Brittany to fight the Picts. He died in York as Septimius Severus, on July 25, 306. His son, Constantine, who was with him despite Galerius' prohibition, was proclaimed Caesar. Subsequently, he often used the image of his father for his benefit.
