Flavia Julia Sabina Titi, born in 65, is the daughter of Titus and Marcia Furnilla. She marries her cousin Flavius Sabinus minor, son of Flavius Sabinus, himself brother of Vespasian, who died in the fire of the Capitol in 70. She receives the title of augusta under the reign of Titus. After the death of her father, her uncle Domitian falls in love with her. Her husband is executed in 84, then she will live with Domitian until his death, perhaps due to childbirth.
