	Roman timeline from 268AD to 284AD
		Aurelius Claudius, known to history as Claudius Gothicus or Claudius II, was born in either Dalmatia or Illyria on May 10, probably in 213 or 214AD.
		Aurelius Victor says that when Gallienus was killed by his own troops besieging Aureolus in Milan, Claudius as tribune was commanding the soldiers stationed at Ticinum, some twenty miles to the south, and that prior to dying Gallienus designated Claudius as his heir.
		Victor goes on to claim that after succeeding to the purple Claudius forced the Senate to deify Gallienus. The SHA account states that the soldiers mutinied after Gallienus's death and had to be quieted with a donative of twenty aurei each before settling down and accepting their new emperor.

		In the case of Aurelius Victor, there is no reason to think that he consulted any other source than the KG while writing his own imperial history.

	Roman Emperors - DIR Tacitus
		In the seven hundred and twenty-second year from the foundation of the city, but the four hundred and eightieth from the expulsion of the kings, the custom was resumed at Rome of absolute obedience to one man, with, instead of rex, the appellation imperator or the more venerable name Augustus.
		Aurelius Antonius Bassianus Caracalla, Severus' son, was born at Lugdunum and ruled alone six years.
		In Italy, that man was victor in three battles: at Placentia, beside the Metaurus River and the Altar of Fortuna, and, finally, at the Ticenensian Fields.

	The documents describing the ‘Wall of Severus’
		This is Aurelius Victor’s Liber de Caesaribus, published in 360.
		Aurelius Victor is the first writer to claim that Septimius Severus built a wall in Britain, over 140 years after that emperor’s death; he is vague about the details and we do not know what his source of information might have been.
		We cannot use this passage as evidence that the author of the Historia Augusta knew of three walls in Britain, simply that, having mentioned walls built by Hadrian and Antoninus Pius, a source that he plagiarised mentioned one built by Severus, and he was in no position to contradict the source.

	The New Empire - Diocletian - Empire of Carausius - Saxon Shore Forts - Constantine
		This is interpreted as 'Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Mausaeus Carausius the Invincible Augustus'.
		Eutropius says that Carausius "was of the meanest birth", so, by assuming the names 'Marcus Aurelius', he is applying a little gloss to his pedigree.
		Aurelius Victor says that Asclepiodotus was "sent ahead with a detachment of the fleet and of the legions", whereas the 'Panegyric on Constantius Caesar' suggests it was Constantius who sailed first.
