<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 160220, member: 6370&quot;]His name was L. Septimius Bassianus (son of Septimus Severus), his name was changed when he was 7 to Marcus Aurilius Antoninus. Thus he was yet another ruler out of what? 7? to take the name Antoninus...goes to show just how great of a man Antoninus Pius was that so many emprors after him took his name. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>His nickname was Caracalla after a style of cloak he not only wore but is said to have given as gifts to the people. Like Gaius, you didnt call him that to his face. You didnt want to make this guy mad...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://www.apollonius.net/Images/caracalla.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>His brother Geta made him mad...here is a Severan Family Portrait</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://www.utexas.edu/courses/romanciv/Romancivimages23/severantondo.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>can you guess who is Geta?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
