Lot # 847 - THEODOSIUS II (402-450). GOLD Solidus. Constantinople. Obv: D N THEODOSIVS P F AVG. Helmeted and cuirassed bust facing slightly right, holding spear and shield decorated with horseman motif.Rev: SALVS REIPVBLICAE / CONOB. Theodosius seated facing on curule chair and Valentinian III standing facing, each wearing consular robes and holding mappa and large cross; star above.RIC 234; Depeyrot 78/1.Theodosius II was proclaimed Augustus at the age of one, but became the ruler of the East only when his father Arcadius died in 408. In fact, however, his mother Aelia Eudoxia was the real ruler, together with the praetorian prefect Anthemius, who had already reigned for Arcadius and distinguished himself for his wisdom and good judgment. The beginning of his reign was marked by peace: relations with the court of Ravenna and with the Persians were good, and important reconstruction works were begun, especially those concerning the new city walls of Constantinople. In 414, however, Anthemius disappeared from court and was replaced by Theodosius II's young sister, Pulcheria, a devout Christian, who began to rule effectively in the East until her brother came of age. She was responsible for the aggressive approach towards the Huns, who represented a new threat to the empire. She also chose to marry her brother to Aelia Eudocia, the daughter of a pagan philosopher from Athens, who was committed to writing religious and secular hymns. Theodosius also enjoyed writing scientific, historical, and theological works, and the court was imbued with a fervent Christian faith. Again on Pulcheria's suggestion, Theodosius attempted to place his cousin Valentinian III on the Western throne and began to reclaim provinces and territories, arguing that the empire should be united. But the Roman Senate, the court of Ravenna with John I, and the army reorganized to protect the West against the claims of Constantinople, enacting laws and launching a campaign in Africa against Bonifatius, loyal to Theodosius II, guilty of having attracted the Vandals of Genseric there. A compromise was reached in Africa, and Theodosius entrusted Valentinian III's mother, Galla Placidia, a woman of undisputed political experience and diplomatic skill, with taking control of the West. This led to the capture of John I in Ravenna and Valentinian III was acclaimed emperor of the West, while Galla Placidia began to establish good relations with both Christians and pagans in an attempt to create a broad consense around her son. Theodosius died in 450 after falling from his horse, before he could implement a series of important initiatives. His reign was marked by a cultural renaissance, during which the famous 'Codex Theodosianus' was compiled to reaffirm the unity of the Roman Empire and lay the foundations for Justinian's future code.
