Natural son and heir of Emperor Vespasian, Titus (39-81 CE) was a member of the Flavian dynasty, the first Roman emperor to succeed his own biological father. Titus, like his father, had earned much renown as a military commander, especially during the First Jewish-Roman war.<br/><br/> When his father left to claim the imperial throne after Nero's death, Titus was left behind to end the Jewish rebellion, which occurred in 70 CE with the siege and sacking of Jerusalem. The Arch of Titus was built in honour of his destruction of the city. He was also known for his controversial relationship with the Jewish queen Berenice.<br/><br/> Under his father, her served as prefect of the Praetorian Guard, and he was known as a good emperor after his accession. As emperor, he is most endearingly known for his completion of the Colosseum, started by his father, and his efforts in relieving the destruction caused by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE and a fire in Rome in 80 CE. Titus only served for two years before dying of a fever in 81 CE, and was deified by the Roman Senate before being succeeded by his younger brother, Domitian.

Marcia Furnilla (1st century CE) was born into a noble and distinguished family, claiming descent from Roman King Ancus Marcius. Furnilla was Titus' second and last wife, marrying him in 63 CE. Furnilla was described as a 'very well-connected' woman, and bore Titus a daughter in 64 CE, Julia Flavia. Like Titus' first marriage, his time with Furnilla was short, as Furnilla's family was connected to the opponents of Nero after the failure of the Pisonian conspiracy in 65 CE. Titus divorced her, not wanting to be connected with any of the potential plotters, taking their daughter with him.
