Document Summary
The governor of lower germany helped put down the rebellion against saturninus along with trajan. Senator from gallia narbonensis was sent to britannia during. Vespasian"s reign to add to the territory -> was from forum julii; everyone got citizenship from julius caesar. Flavius clemens and his wife, flavia domitilla, were executed for atheism i. e. , not recognising the gods of rome. Domitian was the first emperor that was genuinely anti-semitic because of the wars in judaea. Although the story was that he had forced the husband of domitia. Longina to divorce her in 70 ad so that he could marry her, their relationship was stormy. He divorced her at one point, but then took her back because of the outcry. Longina was probably one of his greatest sources for that -> she was the niece of caesonia who was the last wife of caligula and half sister of corbulo. Claudians and flavians is vistilia (mother of caesonia, grandmother of domitia longina).
