ONCE MORE ABOUT ANTONIA TRYPHAINA

Victor Cojocaru

Abstract


As a king’s daughter, a king’s wife and the mother of kings, Antonia Tryphaina played a major role in the kinship ties of the ruling circles in the Julio-Claudian period. Although her name did not go unnoticed in scholarly literature, this great-granddaughter of M. Antonius has quite undeservedly been regarded as a historical figure of secondary importance. Besides, her treatments tend to show by numerous inaccuracies and much speculation. The author therefore felt that a new investigation was required, though he unexpectedly found himself involved in a more complex scrutiny than previous studies had let him foresee.
