Geta as a Child

Geta (Publius, or Lucius, Septimius Geta Augustus; 7 March 189 – 26 December 211), was a Roman emperor who ruled with his father Septimius Severus and his older brother Caracalla from 209, when he was named Augustus like his brother, who had held the title since 198. Severus died in 211, and although he intended for his sons to rule together, they proved incapable of sharing power, culminating with the murder of Geta in December of that year. Caracally did away with his brother, Geta, who was killed in the arms of their mother, Julia Domna.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
