	Flavius Sabinus Vespasianus Titus - LoveToKnow 1911
		FLAVIUS SABINUS VESPASIANUS TITUS, Roman emperor from A.D. 79-81, son of the emperor Vespasian, was born on the 30th of December A.D. 40 (or 41).
		In 68 he was sent by his father to congratulate the newly proclaimed emperor, Galba; but, hearing of Galba's death and of the general confusion in the Roman world, he returned to Palestine, having in the meantime consulted the oracle of the Paphian Venus and received a favourable answer.
		The forebodings of the people were agreeably disappointed, for Titus put an end to prosecutions for high treason, and the delatores (informers) were scourged and expelled from the city.
