Description

Head from a statue of Roman emperor Diocletianus (284-305 AD.) (Istanbul Archaeological Museum, room 6). Gaius Aurelius Valerius Diocletianus Augustus, actually born Diocles, was a Roman emperor from 284 to 305 who rose through the ranks of the military to become roman cavalry commander to the Emperor Carus. After the deaths of Carus and his son Numerian on campaign in Persia, Diocletian was proclaimed emperor. The title was also claimed by Carus' other surviving son, Carinus, but Diocletian defeated him in the Battle of the Margus. Diocletian's reign stabilized the empire and marked the end of the Crisis of the Third Century.
