The Death of Plataianus

Cara Cala and Getta were the sons of Septimius Caverus, who died in 211. Their father wanted them to be co-Augusti so he could avoid a dynastic struggle for power. The boys became obsessed with chariot racing, drinking,. gambling, and everything else that happens in the wee hours of the morning. Next week we'll follow their family bonding trip to Britain where they will attempt to exterminate an entire race of people.
