Genealogical Note

The table above presents a simplified graphic reconstruction of the marital & parental links between the more politically important members of the Caesar clan & their spouses for the nine generations that spanned the 170 years from the birth of Julius Caesar to the death of Nero. The limited viewing area prevents inclusion of other siblings, spouses & children who figured less prominently in the family drama & political intrigues of the first imperial rulers of Rome. This table & the linked biographical notes are designed to clarify the complicated & often confusing pattern of inter-relationship of the persons who molded the destiny of the Roman world into which Jesus was born & out of which Christianity emerged.
