Triumph of Titus, 70 AD

Titus (39-81 AD), was Roman Emperor from 79 to 81. A member of the Flavian dynasty, Titus succeeded his father Vespasian upon his death, thus becoming the first Roman Emperor to come to the throne after his own father. Titus gained renown as a military commander during the First Jewish-Roman War. When Vespasian was declared Emperor in 69 AD, Titus was left in charge of ending the Jewish rebellion. He successfully laid siege to and destroyed the city and Temple of Jerusalem. For this achievement Titus was awarded a triumph; the Arch of Titus commemorates his victory to this day. Titus ruled to great acclaim and was considered a good emperor. He is remembered for completing the Colosseum and his generosity in relieving the suffering caused by the Mount Vesuvius eruption of 79 and a fire in Rome in 80. After barely two years in office, Titus died of a fever in 81.
