Titus Flavius Vespasianus the Younger (better known simply as Titus) is of great interest to historians of the Flavian period. The first Roman emperor to succeed his biological father, he was the best‐trained for the position before Marcus Aurelius, enjoying as he did a period of almost 10 years when he was not only heir‐apparent but also partner and even protector of the imperial office. The importance of Titus in the Flavian launch is underlined by the fact that soon after the Mount Carmel conference Vespasian sent Titus again to Mucianus and he had not yet returned to Caesarea, when the legions of Judea spontaneously saluted Vespasian as emperor. Titus’ relationship with Julia Berenice is known in considerably greater detail. Titus’ friendship with Berenice was immediately reanimated and he decided that he wanted her company and assistance on a permanent basis. (source : éditeur)
