The grand-daughter/niece of Augusto. She married Germanico with whom she had 9 children, among which Caligola and Agrippina Minore; she followed her husband during the campaign of the Rhine and of the Middle East, where he died in the year 19. She was always in conflict with Tiberio, and in the year 29 was exiled by the senate to the Isle of Pandataria (Ventotene), where she died after 4 year. She was very intelligent and ambitious. She's remembered for her honesty in times in which Rome was in a difficult situation of corruption and dishonesty. (14 B.C.-33 A.C)

About the Tiber
The city of Rome was founded in 753 BC on the banks of the Tiber about 25 km from the sea at Ostia. The island Isola Tiberina in the center of Rome, between Trastevere and the ancient center, was the site of an important ancient ford and was later bridged. Legend says Rome's founders, the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, were abandoned on its waters, where they were rescued by a she-wolf.
The river marked the boundary between the lands of the Etruscans to the west, the Sabines to the east and the Latins to the south. Benito Mussolini, born in Romagna, adjusted the boundary between Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna, so that the springs of the Tiber would lie in Romagna. Mussolini placed an antique Roman column at the point where the river arises, inscribed QUI NASCE IL TEVERE SACRO AI DESTINI DI ROMA ("Here is born the Tiber, sacred to the destinies of Rome").
Rome Dinner Cruise
What better way to see Rome than by taking a leisurely cruise on the Tiber passing
This itinerary unwinds along the Tiber, always a characteristic element of the Roman landscape. Up until the construction of the embankments, in the late 19th century, it was completely navigable and characterised by an unending sequence of buildings that faced onto and were reflected in the water. The river was used for fishing and bathing; the water was used to drink and for motive power.
