Postumus the Younger
In the Roman Emperor Gallienus.
According to the pseudo-historical list of 'Thirty Tyrants', the Emperor of the Laelianus (called Lollianus in the Historia).[1]
The historian J. F. Drinkwater dismisses the Historia Augusta's reference to Postumus the Younger as a "fiction".[2] There are no references to any son of Postumus on coins or inscriptions from the period.
The author(s) of the Historia asserts that Postumus the Younger was a skilled rhetor, and that his Controversiae were included among
Declamationes.[1]
