Marcus Aurelius
Accession
When Antoninus Pius died, Marcus Aurelius was already in possession of the tribunician power and maius imperium and had been acting as a full co-regent for years. Thus, at the first session of the senate after the death, the only thing that needed to be done after proclaiming Antoninus' deification was to the title Augustus and the office of pontifex maximus bestowed on the new emperor. But Marcus refused unless the full imperial honors were granted to his adoptive brother L. Ceionius Commodus. To this the senate acquiesced, and Marcus himself adopted the name "Antoninus" to perpetuate the memory of his adoptive father, while he bestowed on his brother his own birth name of Verus. Thus, the new co-emperor became known as Lucius Verus. To him Marcus betrothed his eldest daughter. (Born in 150, she would not be able to marry for several years yet.) This event was unheard of in all of Roman history. It is true that in the later period multiple Augusti are known, but if they were of equal status, there was a physical division of the empire among them. Otherwise, when there were two possesors of the tribunician power, one would have a definitely superior position. This is the only time that there were two equal Augusti operating throughout the empire. Yet, even at that, the two new emperors were not quite equal. Marcus was the elder by ten years, and seems to have made the important decisions himself. Though they issued decrees jointly in both their names, Marcus was clearly the guiding force.

(AD 161 to 180)
(Go to Coins)
Marcus Aurelius was born in 121 AD, the son of Annius Verus who was the brother of Faustina the Elder, wife of Antoninus Pius. Very early in his life he gained the favor of the emperor Hadrian who made him a Salian priest when only 8 and supervised his education. He was later adopted by Antoninus Pius and was married to his daughter, Faustina the Younger, in 145. With the birth of their first child in 146, he was designated as Pius’ partner in power when the emperor bestowed upon him tribunician and proconsular powers. Aurelius succeeded as emperor in 161 with the death of Antoninus Pius. Lucius Verus, who was also adopted by Pius, became emperor alongside Aurelius who insisted on having him as his colleague in power.

Obverse: Head of Antoninus Pius, encircled by DIVVS ANTONINVS. Reverse: Eagle standing on altar, encircled by CONSECRATIO. Upon Marcus Aurelius’ succession, the past emperor Antoninus Pius was remembered for his deeds through his consecration. This coin type marks the historical event of Pius’ consecration ceremony. The obverse shows the head of Antoninus bare with the name DIVVS ANTONINVS, “the Deified Antoninus.” Its simplistic style which features his head bare is unusual for one who is being acknowledged as a god since gods are most often pictured wearing the radiate or laurel crown. The reverse shows an eagle standing upon an altar. The eagle was the bird of immortality, a minister of Jupiter which carried the souls of favored mortals to heaven. In consecration ceremonies a funeral pyre containing the emperor’s body was lighted and an eagle released from its summit as if to bear the emperor’s soul to heaven. The scene is surrounded by the legend CONSECRATIO which simply means “Consecration.”

Marcus Aurelius
Marcus Aurelius (121-180) was a Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD. He is best known for his Meditations . He was concerned with the social problems of the poor, the enlsaved, and the incarcerated. Ironically, he continued the persecution of the growing Christian population. He died of the plague while planning an excursion that would have extended the Roman Empire northwards. His son and successor, Commodus, abandoned those plans. Marcus Aurelius was one of the great philosophers who embraced Stoicism. He was influenced by Epicetus as a young man.

Marcus Annius Verus
(AD 121 - AD 180)
Marcus Annius Verus was born at Rome on 26 April AD 121.
His paternal great-grandfather, Annius Verus from Uccubi (near Corduba) in Baetica, had brough the family, wealthy through the production of olive oil, to prominence by gaining the rank of senator and praetor.
After this, his paternal grandfather (also Marcus Annius Verus) held the office of consul three times. It was this grandfather who adopted Marcus Aurelius after his father's death, and at whose grand residence the young Marcus grew up.
His father, also called Marcus Annius Verus, married Domitia Lucilla, cam came from a wealthy family which owned a tile factory (which Marcus would inherit) close to Rome. But he would die young, when his son was only about three years old. Early on in his life Marcus had the additional names 'Catilius Severus' to his name. This was in honour of his maternal step-grandfather who had been consul in AD 110 and 120. To complete the picture of Marcus' family ties, one needs also to mention his paternal aunt, Annia Galeria Faustina (Faustina the Elder), who was the wife of Anoninus Pius.

March 17, 180, Vindobona [Vienna], or Sirmium, Pannonia Roman emperor (ad 161-180), best known for his Meditations on Stoic philosophy. Marcus Aurelius has symbolized for many generations in the West the Golden Age of the Roman Empire. Youth and apprenticeship. When he was born, his paternal grandfather was already consul for the second time and prefect of Rome, which was the crown of prestige in a senatorial career; his father's sister was married to the man who was destined to become the next emperor and whom he himself would in due time succeed; and his maternal grandmother was heiress to one of the most massive of Roman fortunes. Marcus thus was related to several of the most prominent families of the new Roman establishment, which had consolidated its social and political power under the Flavian emperors (69-96), and, indeed, the ethos of that establishment is relevant to his own actions and attitudes. The governing class of the first age of the Roman Empire, the Julio-Claudian, had been little different from that of the late Republicit was urban Roman (despising outsiders), extravagant, cynical, and amoral; the new establishment, however, was largely of municipal and provincial originas were its emperorscultivating sobriety and good works and turning more and more to piety and religiosity.

The goal was to stabilize and preserve a marble statue of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. In 1998, the J.

The statue, a partially preserved first-century body with a second-century head of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, originally came from the 17th-century collection of the Villa Montalto Negroni in Rome, Italy. It was then acquired by the Royal Cabinet collection of Berlin in 1791, and eventually displayed in the Pergamon Museum at the beginning of the 20th century.

    , ani Epiktétos nehlásali tak naléhavì a pøesvìdèivì tvrdou morálku, nutnost spoléhat sám na sebe a starat se o druhé. Marcus byl fatalista, možná k tomu trochu pøispìla i mandragora, kterou užíval. Poctivì a dùslednì pøenášel své zásady lidskosti a slušnosti do celého svého životního stylu.
    Oèekávaný konflikt s Parthií skuteènì v roce 162 nastal, na východ byl vyslán Lucius Verus. K posílení øímských vojsk na východì byly vyslány i legie z rýnského a hlavnì z dunajského prostoru. Øímané dosáhli pøesvìdèivého vítìzství, obnovili svou prestiž v Arménii, ohrožované parthskou invazí a do rukou vojsk padla i mìsta Seleukie a Ktesifon. Verus mìl na tìchto vítìzstvích jen symbolický podíl, hlavní tíži operací nesl vynikající velitel Avidius Cassius, který se v letech 165 - 166 stal legátem v Sýrii. Roku 166 Verus, bez ohledu na své skuteèné zásluhy, slavil v Øímì triumf.
    Pøibližnì v dobì, kdy konèilo východní tažení, došlo v jiné èásti pohranièních zemí k další události, která ohlašovala trvalou pøemìnu svìtové scény. Pøes horní, støední i dolní tok Dunaje se zaèaly valit v mohutných výpadech Germáni i pøíslušníci jiných kmenù. Kmeny opouštìly své bažinaté lesní mýtiny a smìøovaly do bohatších zemích za øímskou hranicí. Dalším impulsem byl s nejvìtší pravdìpodobností pohyb Gótù, kteøí se vydali ze svých tehdejších sídel na Visle jihovýchodním smìrem a s sebou strhávali do pohybu další kmeny. Na øíšské území se draly kmeny Markomanù, Kvádù, Hermundurù, Naristové, Lugiové, Burové, Jazygové, Alanové, Roxolani a další. Války, které z tìchto pøesunù nastaly jsou oznaèovány jako Markomanské, podle kmene, který nesl hlavní tíži bojù.

    Marcus Aurelius was Emperor from 161 to 180 A.D. No ruler ever came to power with higher ideals and purposes. Marcus Aurelius could be considered the first Freemason. His famous work The Meditations could be considered the source of Masonic morality. He, like Albert Pike , saw the need for morality in both the individual and the state. Marcus Aurelius was trained in philosophy by Apollonius of Chalcedon: in the Greek language by Sextus of Chaeronea, the grandson of Plutarch, while the eminent orator Fronto instructed him in Latin literature. He conducted himself towards all men at Rome, as if he had been their equal, being moved by no arrogance by his elevation to the Empire. He exercised prompt liberality, and managed the provinces with the utmost kindness and indulgence. Under his rule affairs were successfully conducted against the Germans. He himself carried on a war with the Marcomanni, which was greater than any in the memory of man (in the way of wars with the Germans)-so that it was compared to the Punic Wars, for it was exceedingly formidable, and in it whole armies were lost; especially as in this reign, after the victory over the Parthians there occurred a great pestilence so that at Rome, and throughout Italy and the provinces a large fraction of the population, and actually the bulk of the regular troops perished from the plague. After his victory he was so magnificent in his display of games he is said to have exhibited in the arena one hundred lions at once. Having then at last rendered the state happy by his excellent management and gentleness of character, he died in the eighteenth year of his reign, in the sixty-first of his life. He was enrolled among the gods, all the Senate voting unanimously that he should have such honor.
