68. CAIUS JULIUS VERUS MAXIMUS. _Roman Prince._

[Date and place of birth unknown. Died at Aquileia, A.D. 238. Aged 18 or 21.] Son of the Emperor Maximinus, who, on his accession to the purple in 235, raised him to the rank of Cæsar. Well educated, vain of his personal beauty, and haughty of demeanour, but not evil disposed. He was massacred with his father at Aquileia by the rebel Prætorians.
