		The first of these was Julia Domna, wife of Septimius Severus (193-211) and mother of Caracalla (211-17).
		The most famous instance of her cultural activity is the story told in Philostratus' Life of Apollonius of Tyana, (1.3.1) in which she is said to have commissioned that work, based on some recently discovered writings about the first-century-AD Pythagorean sage.
		Similarly, Julia came from the Semitic-speaking fringe of the Roman East, and her family's ancestral religious cult would eventually come into conflict with more traditional piety.
