? ‐268
Emperor of the Gallic Empire, a separate state within the Roman Empire. He held important military positions under Emperor Gallienus, but in 259 he falsely claimed the throne in Gaul, usurping the region and ruling it until 268. His troops were on the Rhine border and stopped Germanic invasions, which ultimately helped restore order to the western part of the Roman Empire. In putting down a rebellion in Mainz, he occupied the town, but was killed by the army. [Motomura Ryoji]

ローマ帝国内の分離国家〈ガリア帝国〉の皇帝。ガリエヌス帝の下で軍務の要職を歴任したが,259年ガリアで帝位を僭称し,この地域を簒奪(さんだつ)して,268年まで支配した。彼の軍勢はライン川辺境地域にあってゲルマン人の侵入を食い止めたので,結果的にはローマ帝国西部の秩序回復に役立ったことになる。マインツにおける反乱の鎮定にあたり,この町を占拠したが,軍隊によって殺された。【本村 凌二】
