* Martyrs Tigrius and Eutropius of Constantinople ( 5th century )

Among his supporting evidence was that the life of Septimius Severus would have appear to make use of a passage from the mid-4th century historian Aurelius Victor, and that the life of Marcus Aurelius likewise uses material from Eutropius.

Finally we may mention, as ancient history, the translation of Eutropius and Dares, by Geoffrey of Waterford ( 13th century ), who gave also the Secret des Secrets, a translation from a work wrongly attributed to Aristotle, which belongs to the next division ( Rom.

Flavius Eutropius was an Ancient Roman historian who flourished in the latter half of the 4th century.

Eutropius ( died 399 ) was a fourth century Eastern Roman official.

On arrival, Gainas murdered Rufinus, and was appointed magister militum for Thrace by Eutropius, the new supreme minister and the only eunuch consul of Rome, who controlled Arcadius " as if he were a sheep ".

Eutropius came down with pneumonia and nearly died — recovering only after being administered his Last Rites.

Power in Constantinople now passed to the eunuch Chamberlain Eutropius.

Arcadius ' new advisor, the eunuch Eutropius, simply took Rufinus ' place as the power behind the Eastern imperial throne.

The forces of Emperor Theodosius were fully committed in the West so the Huns moved unopposed until the end of 398 when the eunuch Eutropius gathered together a force composed of Romans and Goths and succeeded in restoring peace.

In the autumn of 397, John was appointed Archbishop of Constantinople, after having been nominated without his knowledge by the eunuch Eutropius.

* Eutropius, Roman consul and eunuch

John works through the eunuch Eutropius, who has great power over emperor Arcadius, and within a week an imperial Constitution is issued closing the temples, but the official appointed to execute this order is bribed.

The wedding of Eudoxia to Arcadius was orchestrated by Eutropius, one of the eunuch officials serving in the Great Palace of Constantinople.

At the same time another of Theodosius's advisers, the eunuch Eutropius, was sent out from Constantinople to seek the advice and wisdom of an aged Christian monk in the Egyptian town of Lycopolis.

At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Eutropius and Theodorus ( or, less frequently, year 1152 Ab urbe condita ).

At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Augustus and Eutropius ( or, less frequently, year 1140 Ab urbe condita ).

Three other men of appropriate rank to command legions are known to have been involved in the invasion: Vespasian's brother Titus Flavius Sabinus II and Gnaeus Hosidius Geta appear in Dio Cassius's account of the invasion ; Gnaeus Sentius Saturninus is mentioned by Eutropius, although as a former consul he may have been too senior, and perhaps accompanied Claudius later.

The term " Vandals " may have been erroneous for " Victohali ", for around 360 the historian Eutropius reports that Dacia was currently ( nunc ) inhabited by Taifali, Victohali, and Tervingi.

Recently, some writers have suggested that Eutropius may have been referring to the earthwork later called Offa's Dyke.

Eutropius reports Quintillus to have been elected by soldiers of the Roman army immediately following the death of his brother.

She and Gainas, the new magister militum, are considered to have played a part in the stripping of all offices and subsequent execution of Eutropius in 399.

Their initial opposition may have been his protests over the fall from power and execution of Eutropius.

Whether put to flight by Eutropius, or leaving on their own, the Huns had left the Eastern Roman Empire by 398.

* Eutropius, Roman general ( magister militum ), celebrates his victory over the Huns (" the wolves of the North ") in a parade through Constantinople ( see 395 ).

The Roman historian Eutropius in his book, Historiae Romanae Breviarium, written around 369, mentions the Wall of Severus, a structure built by Septimius Severus who was Roman Emperor between 193 and 211:

In the late period of the Roman Empire, after the adoption of the oriental royal court model by the Emperors Diocletian and Constantine, Emperors were surrounded by eunuchs for such functions as bathing, hair cutting, dressing, and bureaucratic functions, in effect acting as a shield between the Emperor and his administrators from physical contact, enjoyed great influence in the Imperial Court ( see Eusebius and Eutropius ).

Eutropius named Sentius as one of the commanders involved in the Roman conquest of Britain two years later.

Arcadius was also dominated by his wife Aelia Eudoxia, who convinced her husband to dismiss Eutropius, who was holding the consulate, at the height of his power, in 399.

Caesar himself mentions few place-names ; and although the battle is called after Pharsalos, four ancient writers – the author of the Bellum Alexandrinum ( 48. 1 ), Frontinus ( Strategemata 2. 3. 22 ), Eutropius ( 20 ), and Orosius ( 6. 15. 27 ) – place it specifically at Palaepharsalos.

He also knew Orosius's Adversus Paganus, and Gregory of Tours ' Historia Francorum, both Christian histories, as well as the work of Eutropius, a pagan historian.

According to Eutropius and Aurelius Victor, he was particularly energetic and successful in keeping off the Germanic invaders from the German provinces and Gaul, after the weakness caused by Valerian's march on Italy against Aemilianus in 253.

It is uncertain though, whether or not Eutropius ' forces defeated the Huns or whether the Huns left on their own.

There is no record of a notable victory by Eutropius and there is evidence that the Hunnish forces were already leaving the area by the time he gathered his forces.

According to Eutropius, around 60 or more men participated in the assassination.

He was on his way back west to deal with a Frankish and Alamannic invasion of Gaul when, ( according to Aurelius Victor, Eutropius and the Historia Augusta ), Tacitus died of fever at Tyana in Cappadocia in June 276.

* Eutropius, Breviarium ab urbe condita, ix.

According to the historian Eutropius, the forces of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius battled against the Marcomannic confederation for three years at the fortress of Carnuntum in Pannonia.

Eutropius compared the war, and Marcus Aurelius ' success against the Marcomanni and their allies, to the Punic Wars.

After Adelperga had married Arichis II, duke of Benevento, Paul at her request wrote his continuation of Eutropius.
