V Roma Project: Caligula: Historical Background

Curated by ACT

This resource presents a biography of Gaius, known as Caligula, the third emperor of Rome. Written in timeline form, it gives literary and artistic evidence about his life. It stresses the lack of credible information about his life and does not dwell on the more sensational rumors about him. This page was created by Barbara F. McManus of The College of New Rochelle.
