<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2416798, member: 19463&quot;]Maybe we should make the point that several names of emperors as used by collectors and historians were not used by or acceptable to the person in question.&nbsp; Caligula was Gaius Caesar, Marcus Aurelius was the first two names but the one that shows on most coins is also Antoninus (the family name).&nbsp; The fact that we have three emperors who used Antoninus Pius as a name is something we just have to learn but, of the three, the one who did not have legends reading Antoninus Pius was the one we call by that name.&nbsp; He was usually styles Antoninus Aug(ustus) Pius.&nbsp; </p><p>I believe it is correct that you will not be executed for errors of this type anymore but I strongly suggest time travelers not use the word Caracalla in his presence. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie25" alt=":blackeye:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
