Description: | Incomplete lead sealing showing the Emperor Septimius Severus (to the left) and his younger son, Geta. After Severus died at York in AD 211, his sons Caracalla and Geta were co-emperors. Within months Caracalla had killed his younger brother. According to the stories, Geta was killed as he sought refuge in the arms of his mother (early third century, Arbeia Roman Fort). | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | work politics archaeology living in the North East roman | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
