Topic: Adminius

	BRITISH CELTIC NOBLES
		Adminius was driven from Cantium by his two brothers, apparently with the approval of his father at around the same time as his enfeeblement in c.AD40.
		Probably the youngest son of the British statesman Cunobelin, and thus the younger brother of Adminius and Togodumnus.
		While his father ruled the joint Catuvellaunian/Trinovantian kingdom from Camulodunum, and his elder brother Adminius governed Cantium from Durovernum (annexed in c.AD30), Togodumnus was given administrative authority over the Catuvellaunian heartlands and based at the old capital of Verulamium.

	Adminius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		'Adminius, Amminius or Amminus was a son of Cunobelinus, ruler of the Catuvellauni, a tribe of Iron Age Britain.
		Based on coin distribution it appears that, in the early to mid 1st century, Adminius was ruler of the Cantiaci of eastern Kent, a kingdom which presumably fell within his father's sphere of influence.
		In any case, Rome's refusal to return the fugitive Adminius to his father was one of the contributory factors to growing anti-Roman sentiment in Britain, which necessitated Claudius' successful invasion of that land in 43.

	Romans in Britain - The Catuvellauni tribe
		Adminius was driven from Cantium by his two brothers, apparently with the approval of his father at around 40AD.
		The attempt of Gaius failed dismally, and Adminius no doubt accompanied the emperor back to Rome where he was subsequently returned to Britain by the emperor Claudius in 43AD, just before the invasion.
		He fought at least two major battles against Aulus Plautius in 43AD and was either killed during the battle of the Medway, or died from his wounds shortly afterwards.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 94.06.02
		He calls the son of Cunobelinus 'Adminius', a form that appears thus in the literary tradition but which we now know from the numismatic evidence (OJA 1 [1982], 111-14, 243-6) to be in error for 'Amminus'.
		On page 44 (and in the caption to the photograph on the opposite page) Salway claims that it was from the surrender of Adminius (sic) that Caligula conceived the idea of the expedition against Britain.
		In any case the British expedition was preceded by a massive build-up of the legions in Germany, attested by both inscriptions and literary references, and the idea of the campaign must have preceded its execution by at least a year.

	The Triumph at Baiae
		In a different context, Suetonius mentions that Caligula’s only accomplishment in the north was to receive the surrender of Adminius, son of Cunobelinus.
		Adminius gave him the opportunity of salvaging the situation.
		The submission of Adminius may have taken place at sea, which would explain why Caligula sailed out in a trireme and, significantly, the emperor ordered the ship brought to Rome as part of his planed triumph.

		Around 40 AD his sons Togodumnus and Caratacus swept through South-east Britain, first deposing their brother Adminius (who had pro-Roman tendancies) from Cantium and then their old adversary Verica of the Atrebates and by doing this, brought the attentions of Rome.
		Adminius fled and sought audience with the mad Gaius Caligula, trying to persuade the emperor that Britain was 'ripe for intervention' at this time.
		The attempt of Gaius failed terribly but Adminius was repatriated with his homeland by the emperor Claudius in 43 AD.

	Freeman & Sear -
		Cubobelin, also known under the Welsh name of Cymbeline, was the son of Tasciovanus, king of the Catuvellauni, and father of Adminius, Togodumnus and Caratacus.
		During the last years of his father's reign, he invaded the territory of the Trinovantes and subdued them, probably prompted by the news of Rome's loss of Varus' three legions in Germany in AD 9, and therefore fairly confident that his action would go unpunished.
		Subsequent military actions by his sons Togodumnus and Caratacus, who swept throughout south-east Britain deposing first their own brother Adminius (who had pro-Roman tendencies) from Cantium, then their old adversary Verica of the Atrebates, brought the attentions of Rome.

		He appears to have ruled the combined territory of both nations and enjoyed good relations with the Roman empire.
		Under Cunobelinus and his family the Catuvellauni appear to have become the dominant power in south-eastern Britain: his brother Epaticcus and son Caratacus, from their coins, appear to have expanded their territory west into the lands of the Atrebates; another son, Adminius, appears to have held power in Kent.
		Suetonius reports that Adminius was expelled from Britain by his father and surrendered with a small following to the emperor Caligula.

		But to set the scene it is necessary to remember that the country was, at that time, a tribal state, each with its own leader but perhaps having allegiance, when advantageous, to other tribes and other leaders, and at times, even to the Roman invaders themselves.
		In AD 40, Cunobelinus, of the Trinovantians (an area north of present-day London) expelled his son, Adminius, who fled overseas and made an act of submission to the Roman Emperor Gaius.
		The invasion by Rome is said to have coincided with a plea by Adminius for help, as well as an economic need for Rome to conquer Britain.

		A third brother, Adminius, had fled to the Romans three years earlier and been warmly greeted.
		No doubt he was another useful pawn in the game of dividing the Britons.

		However, Togodumnus and Caratacus, the anti-Roman sons, cast their younger, pro-Roman brother, Adminius, out of Britain, seizing his lands in what is now Kent.
		Those who escaped appealed to the Romans, failing to gain much sympathy or enough support at first, until Adminius and Verica appealed to Emperor Claudius in person.
		Having several powerful Roman friends, Verica was aware of Claudius's reputation as a weak emperor, and gave him the pretext to take Britain 'in the name of his allies' to demonstrate his strength.
