Talk:List of Roman usurpers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Definition of usurper

What is the definition of "usurper" used for this list? Fore example, people like Carausius and Postumus who are categorized as usurpers in their articles are not represented here. Poulsen 07:40, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

• Agreed. Carausius is a usurper (very successful too!) in my book. fluoronaut 11:15, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 5th century

Why no mention of usurpers later on? Could do with the inclusion of people like Maximus of Hispania (often very confusing because of the other Maximus and putting him on this page would make matters clearer).fluoronaut 11:15, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

Needs some decent refs to primary sources, which are multitudinous and often in competition with each other. fluoronaut 11:15, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
