Lost Roman Heroes - Episode 33: Drusus
We enter the world beyond the Republic with the first Roman to have earned the cognomen "Germanicus", through blood sweat and tears. Grandson of Marc Antony, son of Livia, step-son to Octavian, you might think that he was tempted to live in the lap of luxury but instead, Drusus was cut from an older cloth. Determined to win military glory, and to live an exemplary life, he did so in spades before that life was cut short, but not before he planted some extraordinary seeds.
