Abstract

ABSTRACT:Early in Tiberius’ reign, the Tiber flooded the city of Rome. Asinius Gallus proposed that it be treated as a prodigy and the Sibylline Books consulted, but Tiberius rejected his request. This paper examines Gallus’ proposal and Tiberius’ response. It argues that, contrary to the views of many scholars, Gallus was not attempting to undermine the new emperor but rather to support him. Through this incident, the paper explores prodigy reports in the early Roman Empire, as well as the relationship between Gallus and Tiberius.

提比略、阿西尼乌斯·加卢斯和公元15年的台伯洪水

摘要:在提比略统治早期，台伯河水淹没了罗马城。阿西尼乌斯·加卢斯提议将其视为神童，并征求了《西比林书》的意见，但提比略拒绝了他的请求。本文考察了加卢斯的建议和提比略的回应。它认为，与许多学者的观点相反，加卢斯并没有试图破坏新皇帝，而是支持他。通过这一事件，本文探讨了罗马帝国早期的神童报道，以及加卢斯与提比略之间的关系。
