She was a woman of ambitious nature and was accused 26 ANTIQUE MARBLES of committing various crimes in order to secure the succession of her son Tiberius to the throne. Among the charges laid at her door are those of having caused the premature death of Marcellus, nephew and heir of Augustus ; of Gains and Lucius Caesar, the Emperor's grandsons; and even of having caused the death of Augustus himself. She appears, however, to have held the affection of the Emperor until his death. For a time af...ter the accession of Tiberius she acted as joint ruler with her son, but he soon tired of her efforts at control. An estrangement followed which became complete.
