Who's Who in
I Claudius
[If you've come here looking for a family tree for HBO's
Rome, the characters
who are also on this page are: Julius Caesar, Atia,
Octavian (later known as Augustus), Octavia, Marc Antony,
Cleopatra, Livia, and (very briefly) Antonia.
And now back to our regularly scheduled webpage...]
If you're like me, these sprawling family sagas are very confusing
until you figure out how all the characters are related to each
other. So here's the family tree for Robert Grave's I Claudius.
Major characters are highlighted in
green. Emperors are in
BOLD CAPS. As the story starts, Augustus has been
married to Livia for eight years, and they are celebrating
the 20th anniversary of the Battle of Actium where Marc Antony
and Cleopatra were killed. I did some research to add in the
earlier characters who don't actually appear in the series.
This revealed that there are many other spouses and children who are
not mentioned below or in the series.
