* Tacitus writes Histories, which covers the period from 69 to 96.

Tacitus writes that after Julius Caesar's assassination, a temple in honour of Isis had been decreed ; Augustus suspended this, and tried to turn Romans back to the Roman deities who were closely associated with the state.

According to German philologist Maximilian Ihm ( 1863 – 1909 ), Tacitus writes that the Chatti were hostile and subjugated the Cherusci but were " pacified " between 4 and 6 CE.

Bell, Jr. writes mysteries set in the Roman Empire with Pliny the younger as sleuth and Tacitus as sidekick.

Tacitus writes: “ He was then carried into a bath, with the steam of which he was suffocated, and he was burnt without any of the usual funeral rites.

Tacitus writes:

Tacitus in his Annals writes of them being wild, savage and impatient, disobedient even to their own kings.

At the time of the uprising of Boudica, Tacitus writes that " Londinium ... though undistinguished by the name of a colonia, was much frequented by a number of merchants and trading vessels.

Tacitus also writes about female prophets among the Germanic peoples in his book Histories 4, 61-notably a certain Veleda:

In chapter 40 of his Germania, Roman historian Tacitus writes that beside the Langobardi dwell seven Germanic tribes ; the Reudigni, Aviones, Anglii, Varini, Eudoses, Suarines, and Nuitones.

Juha Pentikäinen writes that Tacitus may well have been describing the Sami or the proto Finns when referring to the Fenni, noting some archeologists have identified these people as indigenous to Scandinavia.

Tacitus writes in De vita Iulii Agricolae that Agricola was fighting in the area in around 80 CE.

Regarding the Harii, Tacitus writes in Germania:

Tacitus writes from the point of view of an aristocrat.

The Roman historian Tacitus writes that the Parthian court official Abdagaeses, who exerted political control over Tiridates, spared Tiridates from danger by preventing him from visiting the Parthian tribes.

On the Germanic tribes, the Roman historian Tacitus writes the following: " They don't consider it mighty enough for the Heavens to depict Gods on walls or to display them in some human shape .".

His half-brother, the Praetorian Prefect Florianus, and Tacitus himself won a victory against these tribes, among which were the Heruli, which gained the emperor the title Gothicus Maximus.

* September 25 – Marcus Claudius Tacitus is proclaimed Emperor by the Senate, his half brother Marcus Annius Florianus becomes Praetorian Prefect.

Appointed Praetorian Prefect in Tacitus's army in his campaign against the Goths, according to the available sources, he was chosen by the army in the West to succeed Tacitus in 276, without the Roman Senate consensus.

* The Emperor Tacitus is acclaimed by the Senate, meeting in the ' Curia Pompiliana ' ( no such building ) and after orations by the consul ' Velius Cornificius Gordianus ' ( no such person ) and ' Maecius Faltonius Nicomachus ' ( ditto: most of the ' Maecii ' in the HA are invented ), he goes to the Campus Martius and is presented to the troops by the Prefect of the City ' Aelius Cesettianus ' ( no such person ) and the Praetorian Prefect ' Moesius Gallicanus ' ( ditto: the HA has several invented ' Gallicani ').

According to the ancient historian Tacitus, the ringleaders included Subrius Flavus, a tribune of the Praetorian court, and the centurion Sulpicius Asper, who helped Piso spawn the scheme.

Tacitus also relates that a centurion, Sempronius Densus, of the Praetorian guard drew a dagger to save Lucius Calpurnius Piso Licinianus momentarily.

According to Tacitus, Macro was active in discrediting Sejanus and in directing the subsequent purge against his family and followers.

According to Tacitus, Macro even played an active role in bringing about Caligula's rise to power by ordering Tiberius to be killed after it was revealed that reports of his death had been premature: Caligula had begun to take power immediately upon hearing that Tiberius had died of natural causes but without confirming that Tiberius had indeed died.

Throughout her life, Agrippina always prized her descent from Augustus, upbraiding Tiberius for persecuting the blood of his predecessor ; Tacitus, in writing of the occasion, believed this behaviour to be part of the beginning of " the chain of events leading to Agrippina's end.

In 21, during the reign of Tiberius, they revolted under Julius Sacrovir, and seized Augustodunum, but were soon put down by Gaius Silius ( Tacitus Ann.

Tacitus provides some information on Caligula's life under Tiberius.

However, Augustus compelled Tiberius to adopt Germanicus as a son and to name him as his heir ( see Tacitus, Annals IV. 57 ).

This was never proven, and Piso later died while facing trial ( ostensibly by suicide, but Tacitus supposes Tiberius may have had him murdered before he could implicate the emperor in Germanicus ' death ).

He feared the people of Rome knew of the conspiracy against Germanicus, but Tiberius ' jealousy and fear of his nephew's popularity and increasing power was the true motive as understood by Tacitus.

In Tacitus ' opinion, the trend away from a true republic was irreversible only when Tiberius established power, shortly after Augustus ' death in AD 14 ( much later than most historians place the start of the Imperial form of government in Rome ).

The historians Tacitus and Cassius Dio depict an overweening, even domineering dowager, ready to interfere in Tiberius ’ decisions, the most notable instances being the case of Urgulania ( grandmother of Claudius's first wife Plautia Urgulanilla ), a woman who correctly assumed that her friendship with the empress placed her above the law, and Munatia Plancina, suspected of murdering Germanicus and saved at Livia's entreaty.

Until AD 22 there had, according to Tacitus, been " a genuine harmony between mother and son, or a hatred well concealed ;" Dio tells us that at the time of his accession already Tiberius heartily loathed her.

Livia had always been a principal beneficiary of the climate of adulation that Augustus had done so much to create, and which Tiberius despised (" a strong contempt for honours ", Tacitus, Annals 4. 37 ).

Tacitus suggests that he was always disliked and shunned by Livia, as he stood in the way of her son Tiberius succeeding to the throne after Augustus.

Accounts are also inconsistent on who ordered the death and these existed almost from the start, when Tiberius immediately and publicly disavowed the act upon being notified of it ( Tacitus, Ann.

Most historical documentation of Tiberius ' revenge is given from Suetonius and Tacitus.

Tacitus, on the other hand, attributes much of the decline of Tiberius ' rule after 23 to the corrupting influence of Sejanus, although he is generally also harsh on Tiberius himself.

The Annales of Tacitus state ( 1. 42. 6 ) that they received standards from Tiberius, but when that was is not clear.

The ruler of the kingdom was Tiberius Claudius Cogidubnus: Tacitus says " quaedam civitates Cogidumno regi donatae ( certain civitates were given to King Cogidubnus )" and remarks on his loyalty.

In his Filippo he has represented, almost with the masterly touches of Tacitus, the sombre character, the dark mysterious counsels, the suspensa semper et obscura verba, of the modern Tiberius.

Saloninus was intended to marry one of the granddaughters of Emperor Tiberius ( Tacitus, Annals 3. 75 ).

Saloninus was intended to marry one of the granddaughters of Emperor Tiberius ( Tacitus, Annals 3. 75 ).

Tacitus reports that Augustus on his deathbed, while discussing of possible Tiberius ’ rivals, described him as worthy of becoming emperor ( capax imperii ), but " disdainful " of supreme power.
