Titus Flavius Clemens ( c. 150 – c. 215 ), known as Clement of Alexandria, was a Christian theologian who taught at the Catechetical School of Alexandria.

Flavian dynasty | Flavian family tree, indicating the descendants of Titus Flavius Petro and Tertulla

Domitian was born in Rome on 24 October 51, the youngest son of Titus Flavius Vespasianus — commonly known as Vespasian — and Flavia Domitilla Major.

He had an older sister, Domitilla the Younger, and brother, also named Titus Flavius Vespasianus.

Domitian's great-grandfather, Titus Flavius Petro, had served as a centurion under Pompey during Caesar's civil war.

Nevertheless, Petro managed to improve his status by marrying the extremely wealthy Tertulla, whose fortune guaranteed the upwards mobility of Petro's son Titus Flavius Sabinus I, Domitian's grandfather.

By marrying Vespasia Polla he allied himself to the more prestigious patrician gens Vespasia, ensuring the elevation of his sons Titus Flavius Sabinus II and Vespasian to senatorial rank.

During the Jewish-Roman wars, he was likely taken under the care of his uncle Titus Flavius Sabinus II, at the time serving as city prefect of Rome ; or possibly even Marcus Cocceius Nerva, a loyal friend of the Flavians and the future successor to Domitian.

His brother Titus Flavius Sabinus II, as city prefect, commanded the entire city garrison of Rome.

Terms of peace, including a voluntary abdication, were agreed upon with Titus Flavius Sabinus II, but the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard — the imperial bodyguard — considered such a resignation disgraceful, and prevented Vitellius from carrying out the treaty.

The governor of Germania Inferior, Lappius Maximus, moved to the region at once, assisted by the procurator of Rhaetia, Titus Flavius Norbanus.

Titus Flavius Norbanus may have been appointed to the prefecture of Egypt, but almost certainly became prefect of the Praetorian Guard by 94, with Titus Petronius Secundus as his colleague.

At least twenty senatorial opponents were executed, including Domitia Longina's former husband Lucius Aelius Lamia and three of Domitian's own family members, Titus Flavius Sabinus IV, Titus Flavius Clemens and Marcus Arrecinus Clemens.

At the time the Guard was commanded by Titus Flavius Norbanus and Titus Petronius Secundus and the latter was almost certainly aware of the plot.

Titus Flavius Satyrus set up this monument in his memory from his own money.

Flavius Josephus fully defected to the Roman side and was granted Roman citizenship, and became an advisor and friend of Vespasian's son Titus.

The Romans ( commanded by Flavius Vespasian and his son Titus, both subsequently Roman emperors ) asked the group to surrender, but they refused.

In 71, he went to Rome in the entourage of Titus, becoming a Roman citizen and client of the ruling Flavian dynasty ( hence he is often referred to as Flavius Josephus — see below ).

Although he uses " Josephus ", he appears to have taken the Roman praenomen Titus and nomen Flavius from his patrons.

The fate of the menorah used in the Second Temple is recorded by Josephus, who states that it was brought to Rome and carried along during the triumph of Vespasian and Titus.

We are enabled thus to contrast Tacitus with Josephus, who warped his narrative to do honour to Titus.

Josephus describes multiple tortures and positions of crucifixion during the Siege of Jerusalem as Titus crucified the rebels ; and Seneca the Younger recounts: " I see crosses there, not just of one kind but made in many different ways: some have their victims with head down to the ground ; some impale their private parts ; others stretch out their arms on the gibbet.

According to Josephus, Titus had ordered that the Temple should not be destroyed, but while the fighting around the gates continued, a soldier hurled a torch inside one of the windows, which quickly set the entire building ablaze.

1370 ) recounts that Titus commanded the sowing of salt on the Temple, but this episode is not found in Josephus.

* Titus Flavius Josephus, famous Jewish historian.

After Jewish allies killed a number of Roman soldiers, Titus sent Josephus, the Jewish historian, to negotiate with the defenders ; this ended with Jews wounding the negotiator with an arrow, and another sally was launched shortly after.

The account of Josephus described Titus as moderate in his approach and, after conferring with others, ordering that the thousand-year-old ( at that time ) Temple be spared.

) According to Josephus, the Roman soldiers grew furious with Jewish attacks and tactics and, against Titus ' orders, set fire to an apartment adjacent to the Temple, which soon spread all throughout.
