CONSTANTIVS II
Reigned: 337-361 A.D.
Siscia
| SISCIA (Sisak, Croatia (Hrvatska) - 45°29'N, 16°23'E), situated on the island Segesta at the confluence of the Kupa and Sava Rivers, was the main town of the Segestanoi, Illyrians who had absorbed Celtic influences. The Romans temporarily took Siscia in 119 BC but did not "permanently" control it until Augustus made it part of Illyricum in 35 BC. Vespasian established a colony for fleet veterans, and the city became the provincial capital of Pannonia Savia in the late third century. An imperial mint was established about 260 and remained open until at least 390. Siscia fell to the Ostrogoths about 425. (From MONETA, from www.numus.com) |
