Diadumenian was born on 14 September 208, named Marcus Opellius Diadumenianus, to Macrinus, the Praetorian Prefect and future emperor of Berber origin,[2] and his possibly fictitious wife Nonia Celsa.[3] Macrinus declared himself emperor on 11 April 217, three days after Emperor Caracalla was assassinated. There Macrinus elevated Diadumenian to augustus, making him co-emperor. Notably, some eastern provincial coins from the period exist which give Diadumenian the title sebastos, at the time the Greek equivalent of the Roman augustus.[5] In terms of gold coins, Diadumenian has one known style of aureus, bearing his image on the obverse, and displaying Spes standing on the reverse, and one known style of half-aureus, bearing his image on the obverse, and displaying himself holding a sceptre and standard.[8] Sons of Roman emperors ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-7307.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-7307.txt
