, emperor Julius Caesar Augustus (14–37 CE), son of Tiberius Claudius Nero and Livia. He first marries Vipsania Agrippina, the daughter of Marcus Agrippa, and fathers two children by her, but, after Agrippa’s death in 12, he is forced by Augustus to DIVORCE and marry JULIA MAIOR, Agrippa’s widow and Augustus’s daughter. After she gives BIRTH to a child that dies soon after, Tiberias stops having sex with her. He retires to Rhodes in 6, out of favor with Augustus. After Julia’s banishment in 2, Augustus procures Tiberius a divorce. He returns to Rome in 2 CE. Early in his reign, in 27, he retires to the island of Capri. There, Tiberius reportedly acquires infants to nurse on his penis, and boys and girls, whom he called pisciculi, “little fishes,” to arouse him by nibbling at him when he goes BATHING, or to play Pan and nymphs in special groves called Caprinea. He converts the latrines (sellaria; pl. 37) of Capri into male BROTHELS for which he procures “fancy boys,” sellarii (CINAEDI), one of whom is the future emperor Vitellius (Suetonius, Caligula 16.1, Vitellius 3.2). He also acquires “men of gigantic proportions, whom he called spintriae, to copulate in threes to excite his failing DESIRES.” He compiles an erotic library and art gallery, SEX MANUALS by Elephantis and paintings by Parrhasius, especially one that depicted ATALANTA FELLATING Melcager. And in his OLD AGE, he is accused of being a CUNNILICTOR; one woman kills herself afterwards, complaining of “the bad breath of the goat,” capri in Latin, a phrase that became popular in Atellan farces (THEATER). Once, at a sacrifice, he lusted after the incense bearer and had him brought to his chamber to rape both him and his flute-playing brother; when they complained, he had their legs broken. Since it was forbidden to execute virgins, he had the daughter of Sejanus raped first by the executioner. And he would trick men into drinking vast amounts of wine, and when they were tortured he would have their penises tied up so they were unable to urinate (DOGKNOT). Suetonius, Tiberius. Tiresias
TIBERIUS attracted both types (Suetonius, Tiberius 43.1, Caligula 16.1);
Vitellius was even nicknamed “Spintria” because as a boy he was rumored to have
prostituted himself with Tiberius at Capri to obtain his father’s political advancement
(Suetonius, Vitellius 3.2).
