Domitia Corbula

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Domitia was the eldest daughter to Roman Consul and General Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo and potentially the daughter of the blind jurist C. Cassius Longinus (suff. 50), Cassia Longina. Her younger sister was Domitia Longina, a future Roman Empress who would marry Emperor Domitian. Her paternal aunt was Caligula's fourth wife Milonia Caesonia.

She was married to the senator Annius Vinicianus, the son of the conspirator against Caius Caesar, L. Annius Vinicianus. Their marriage was terminated when Vinicianus was undoubteldy executed for his involvement in the elusive 'Vinician Conspiracy' at Beneventum in 66 (Suetonius Nero 36.1). This was likely the impetus behind the compulsive suicide of her father in the following year during Nero's Greek tour.
