Historical background
GETA
(06/198-26/02/212)
Caesar
Geta, born May 26, 189, Caesar since 198, received in 199 the title of pontifex. Nobilitas is only used by Geta for donativa and only with silver or gold quinaries: 5th liberality in 205, donativum in 207, 6th liberality in 209 for elevation to august. This setback in 199 can be associated with the donativum that accompanied Geta's appointment as pontiff..
