Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Domitia, more commonly referred to as Domitia Lepida the Elder (c. 19 BC-June 59) was the oldest child of Antonia Major and Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus (consul 16 BC), and the oldest granddaughter to Triumvir Mark Antony and Octavia Minor, a great-niece of the Roman Emperor Augustus, second cousin and sister-in-law to the Emperor Caligula, first cousin to the Emperor Claudius, maternal aunt to the Empress Valeria Messalina, and paternal aunt to Emperor Nero. She married the consul Decimus Haterius Agrippa, who died in 32 as a victim of Tiberius'' reign of terror. Domitia bore Agrippa a son, Quintus Haterius Antoninus, became consul in 53. In 33 Domitia married the witty, wealthy, and influential Gaius Sallustius Crispus Passienus. Crispus was the adopted grandson and biological great-great nephew of the historian Sallust. After January 41, the new Emperor Claudius asked Domitia and Crispus to divorce, so Crispus could marry Domitia''s former sister-in-law Agrippina the Younger, who recently returned from exile and had her son Lucius Domitius (Nero) to care for. Crispus thus became Nero''s stepfather.
