	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.
		Although the most substantive source on Claudius is the biography in the Scriptores Historiae Augustae (SHA), this account is riddled with fabrications and slanted with fawning praise for this particular emperor, who in the 4th century was viewed as an ancestor of Constantine's father and thus of the ruling imperial family.
		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.

		Marcus Aurelius Claudius was part of the Illirian cabal the plotted the murder of the emperor Gallienus, along with another future emperor, Aurelian.
		Claudius was an excptional military man, and rose to the highest ranks of the army eventually serving as deputy commander and chief-of-staff under Gallienus.

	Aurelian
		In fact, he is credited with having had the idea of raising the alarm at night, which caused the emperor to rise from his tent and which provided the assassins with their opportunity to strike.
		Claudius II Gothicus instead appointed him 'Master of the Horse' and perhaps the most powerful military figure in the empire.
		It was very questionable if Claudius II Gothicus had truly named his brother heir to the imperial throne, but once more the preference of the army and senate of a less strict man than Aurelian made sure he did not become emperor.

		With a force seemingly hopelessly outnumbered, he next campaigned successfully against an immense army of Goths which had invaded the empire; the Gothic host was devastated by plague, which spread to the Roman army, and took Claudius' life at Sirmium in August 270.
		For his victory Claudius was awarded the honorific "Gothicus Maximus," was deified, and became one of Rome's most revered heroes.
		Claudius' younger brother was proclaimed emperor after his death, but after Aurelian was also acclaimed, Quintillus, no match for that general, took his own life in despair after reigning less than two months.

	Roman Emperors DIR Quintilius (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Earlier, the HA quotes an alleged letter from Claudius to Aurelian, appointing the latter commander in the ongoing campaign against the Goths and assuring him that Quintillus, when he links up with him, "will be with him." (Aurelian 13.3: tecum erit etiam frater Quintillus, cum occurrerit).
		HA Claudius 13 gives a confused and highly suspect account of Quintillus' Illyrian family, naming, along with Claudius Gothicus, a probably fictitious brother Crispus.
		An equally suspect Claudia, daughter of this Crispus, is said to have married an almost certainly fabricated Eutropius, from which union allegedly came Constantius Chlorus, the father of Constantine the Great.
