Venetian School The martyrdom of St. Domitilla

Ms. Codex 317 - [Miscellany of theological, devotional and liturgical works]

This manuscript consists of miscellaneous theological, devotional and liturgical works including the Lives of Saint Domitilla Vergine, which generally is the last portion of the Vita Nerei et Achillei; 79 four-line stanzas that deal mostly with rules for proper behavior in daily, mostly secular, life; the Lives and miracles of SS. Ursula and Elizabeth; over forty sequences, readings, etc. used in the liturgy throughout the year; and various other short prayers and other works. It was possibly written in Tuscany, Italy, in the 15th century.

Unknown Artist St. Domitilla

So, I was watching Those Prepared to Die, and realized the timeline is off. Julia Flavia should already be alive. And damn, I can't wait for her to be in this show. Anyway, I will double-check what my books have for dates, but Julia Flavia according to Wiki was born in 64 AD. The show takes place far after that date, because Vespasian died in 79 (again, wiki.) Also, can't wait for Titus Flavius Sabinus II! Don't disappoint me, show.

Also, why is Titus and Domitian's sister Domitilla isn't even mentioned. I remember reading in Suetonius that she died in childbirth. But, it's weird to me she's isn't spoken about at all. According to Wiki, she died before Vespasian became emperor. But someone should at least mention her! (It's like when I read that Caligula Comic and Drusilla was only mentioned in one scene.) Anyway, I think one of the main things that is frustrating me about this show is the lack of Historical Female characters. I really like Berenice, but I really donno why Domitllia and Flavia aren't in the show. Or at least mentioned. Also, if Flavia isn't alive or in the story, then what the hell are they going with Domitian's plot line?
