Pupienus
30th Emperor of the Roman Empire
Years: 165 - 238
Pupienus (Latin: Marcus Clodius Pupienus Maximus Augustus; born c. 165/170 – 29 July 238), also known as Pupienus Maximus, is Roman Emperor with Balbinus for three months in 238, during the Year of the Six Emperors.
The sources for this period are scant, and thus knowledge of the emperor is limited.
In most contemporary texts Pupienus is referred by his agnomen 'Maximus' rather than by his cognomen (family name) Pupienus.
