Encyclopedia > Cornelia Cinna minor

Cornelia Cinna minor (94 BC[citation needed]69 BC[1] or 68 BC[2]), daughter of Lucius Cornelius Cinna, one of the great leaders of the Marian party, was married to Gaius Julius Caesar, who would become one of Rome's greatest conquerors and its dictator. Caesar married her in 83 BC[3], when he was only seventeen years of age; and when Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix commanded him to put her away, he refused to do so and chose rather to be deprived of her fortune and to be proscribed himself. Cornelia bore him his daughter Julia, and died before his quaestorship. Caesar delivered an oration in praise of her from the Rostra, when he was quaestor.[4][5][6] Centuries: 2nd century BC - 1st century BC - 1st century Decades: 140s BC 130s BC 120s BC 110s BC 100s BC - 90s BC - 80s BC 70s BC 60s BC 50s BC 40s BC Years: 99 BC 98 BC 97 BC 96 BC 95 BC - 94 BC - 93 BC 92 BC 91...

Gelzer quotes Broughton to assert that Caesar was quaestor in 69 BC. Gelzer explains that Caesar, after becoming quaestor, delivered an oration in praise of his aunt Julia. Shortly after this event, Cornelia died too.
