Elagabalus (Marcus Aurelius Antoninus)

Elagabalus, also known as Heliogabalus or Marcus Aurelius Antoninus born 8 March AD 204 (d. AD 222).

One of the more debauched emperors of Rome, his brief reign was marked by five marriages to different women, extravagant homosexual orgies, a double 'wedding' to a well-hung blond charioteer named Hierocles and a boy named Gorianus and many other rum goings on, including prostituting himself in taverns and brothels. He was also partial to make-up.

He was murdered in a most unpleasant manner, along with his mother, his body dragged through the streets and dumped in a sewer; it didn't fit, so they weighed him down and dumped him in the Tiber. He was just 18 years old.

His reign did not leave Rome with much of a legacy but it sounds like fun while it lasted...
