Sign in to saveAlso known as Pupienus Maximus, Marcus Clodius Pupienus Maximus
Marcus Clodius Pupienus Maximus ( 164–238) was Roman emperor with Balbinus for 99 days in 238, during the Year of the Six Emperors. The sources for this period are scant, and thus knowledge of the emperor is limited. In most contemporary texts he is referred to by his cognomen "Maximus" rather than by his second nomen (family name) Pupienus ().
Pupienus was a Roman emperor who ruled jointly with Balbinus for 99 days in 238 CE, a year marked by rapid succession of multiple emperors. Because historical sources from this period are sparse, little is known about his life and reign, though he is often called by his cognomen "Maximus" in surviving texts.
