Roman sculpture showing Plautilla – the wife of Emperor Caracalla. The object dates back to 202 CE. The artifact is located in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples.
Interestingly, Caracalla sincerely hated his wife – for unknown reasons. After Plautian’s (her father) conspiracy was discovered, Plautilla was exiled to the Aeolian Islands and killed there around 212 CE on Caracalla’s orders. This relationship was childless.
