Historical background


GALERIUS

(+5/05/311)

Galerius struck by Maxentius

Galerius dies in terrible suffering, which Lactantius attributes to divine wrath, unleashed in order to make him pay for his role in the great persecution against Christians. Galère is not regretted. Only Licinius I and Maxentius restore his memory.
