Commentary


Dans la base TSP maintenue par Michel Prieur, soixante exemplaires sont maintenant répertoriés dont en musées Berne, British Museum, Yale et certainement d’autres mais le RPC ne donne pas de liste et ces types ont majoritairement été omis de la base TSP car classés dans les fonds des musées à Césarée de Cappadoce et donc jamais relevés.

Historical background


NERO and CLAUDIUS

(+54)

Claudius, who already had a son by Messalina, Britannicus, nevertheless adopted Nero, son of his new wife and niece, Agrippina. Nero, grandson of Germanicus, was named Caesar and Prince of Youth. On the death of his father-in-law and great-uncle, he girded the crown of the Caesars without any problem.
