• Notes

  Title: Magister Equitum Praesentalis Note: Theodosius the Elder was a senior military officer serving in the Western empire and rose to become the magister equitum praesentalis under the emperor Valentinian I from late 368 until his execution in early 375 Birth: ABT 316 Death: 375 executed in Carthage Note: Theodosius' father was executed at roughly the same as his accession to Emperor, and much speculation has centred on the relationship between these events. A general consensus seems to have emerged, however, that the future emperor was forced into retirement shortly after the execution of his father at Carthage in Africa during the winter of 375/6. The same court faction which had engineered the death of his father managed to persuade Valentinian to dismiss him also, or so the consensus goes. Event: Magister Equitum Praesentalis Acceded 368
