CONSTANTIVS II

Reigned: 337-361 A.D.

Sirmium

SIRMIVM (Sremska Mitrovica, Yugoslavia/Serbia & Montenegro - 44°59'N, 19°39'E), the main city of the Amantini, was taken by Tiberius about 10 BC and made part of Illyricum. Located on the banks of the Sava River, in 9 AD it became part of Pannonia, and Vespasian later established a colony. It finally became the capital of Pannonia Secunda about 294. Six emperors were born within fifteen miles: Trajan Decius, Aurelian, Probus, Maximian, Gratian, and Constantius II. Its mint operated 320-326, again from 351-367, and briefly in 379. The Huns sacked it about 440, and the Avars destroyed it before 582. (From MONETA, from www.numus.com)
