Antistia was the first wife of Pompey the Great . Pompey had been arraigned on charges of peculation of plunder. The judge of Pompey s trial happened to be Antistia s father. Pompey made a deal with Antistius , and agreed to marry Antistia. In exchange, he was acquitted. However, the marriage did not last. Lucius Cornelius Sulla had been fighting against Mithridates the Great of Pontus whilst Lucius Cornelius Cinna and Gnaeus Papirius Carbo ruled Rome. Upon his return, Sulla went to war against Carbo, as Cinna had died the year before. In retaliation, Carbo murdered any man who he believed to be an adherent of Sulla. Among those who perished were Antistia s father. Her mother committed suicide after her father s death. The end of the marriage was precipitated by the young Pompey s prodigious military skill and defiance of tradition. Pompey brought Sulla an army, and used it expertly to further Sulla s purposes. Wishing to form a stronger alliance, Sulla offered Pompey his pregnant stepdaughter Aemilia Scaura , and Pompey readily divorced Antistia.

Rubellia Bassa born between 33 38 was a daughter of Gaius Rubellius Blandus , consul in 18 and possibly his wife Julia daughter of Drusus the Younger Julia killed 43 or an earlier wife. Possible Imperial ancestry It has been theorized that her mother was Julia daughter of Julius Caesar Drusus and Livilla , which would make Bassa the granddaughter of Tiberius however, this lineage is uncertain because her father, Gaius Rubellius Blandus married Julia daughter of Drusus the Younger Julia when he around 55, which makes an earlier marriage likely possibly to a Laecania Bassa , and Rubellia Bassa may have been the daughter of Blandus by this theorized earlier marriage. Bassa had at least one sibling, a ?half brother named Rubellius Plautus Gaius Rubellius Plautus , who was one of the nearest heirs of the blood of Augustus being the grandson of Julius Caesar Drusus Drusus Caesar , who was an adopted grandson of Augustus . Plautus was forced to kill himself in 62 and his wife Antistia Pollitta and children were executed four years later perhaps because the children were direct descendants of previous Roman Emperors . Marriage and possible descendants Rubellia Bassa married Octavius Laenas, maternal uncle of the future emperor Nerva .

This page is about the Latin praenomen. For other uses of this name, see Faustus disambiguation . Faustus IPA en fa st s pron , or occasionally IPA en f st s is a Latin praenomen , or given name personal name . It was never particularly common at Rome, but may have been used more frequently in the countryside. The feminine form is Fausta . The name was not usually abbreviated, but is occasionally found abbreviated F. During the period of the Roman Empire , it was widely used as a cognomen , or surname . As the Roman naming conventions Roman nomenclature system began to break down towards the end of the Western Roman Empire Western Empire in the 4th and 5th centuries, Faustus once again became a personal name, and it has survived into modern times. ref name ReferenceA Realencyclop die der Classischen Altertumswissenschaft ref ref name Mika Kajava 1994 Mika Kajava, Roman Female Praenomina Studies in the Nomenclature of Roman Women 1994 ref The best known examples of this praenomen are from the family of the dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla , who in 81 B.C. named his twin children Faustus and Fausta . The name continued to be used regularly by his descendants over the next two centuries. Other gentes from which examples are known include the Antistia gens Antistii , Decimii, Lartia gens Lartii , Paccii, Veidii, and Vibii and perhaps also the Julia gens Julii , Servii, and Sextia gens Sestii . Varro described this praenomen as obsolete in the 1st century BC, implying that it had once been more common but it seems that by reviving it in his own family, Sulla may have started a trend which continued for some centuries, and probably also contributed to the popularity of the name as a cognomen. ref name ReferenceA ref name Mika Kajava 1994 Origin and Meaning of the Name The meaning of Faustus is fortunate or lucky , a fact which probably inspired Sulla, who considered himself blessed by fortune.
