La figura dello spagnolo Lucius Antistius Rusticus è stata per lo più studiata in relazione all’intervento di questo governatore in occasione di una carestia verificatasi in Asia Minore durante il regno di Domiziano. Modesto interesse, invece, ha suscitato il rapporto di coniugio del legatus con la conterranea Mummia Nigrina: in realtà, però, il matrimonio con questa donna facoltosa, altolocata e affettuosa dovette contribuire in maniera determinante alla prestigiosa carriera politica del marito.

Abstract
The figure of the Spanish Lucius Antistius Rusticus was mostly studied in connection with the intervention of this governor during a famine that occurred in Asia Minor under the reign of Domitian. Low interest, however, aroused the marriage relationship of the legatus with the countrywoman Mummia Nigrina, but, in reality, the marriage with this wealthy, high-ranking and devoted woman had to contribute decisively to the prestigious political career of her husband.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
