Anastasia (sister of Constantine I)
Daughter of Constantius I
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anastasia was a daughter of Roman Emperor Constantius Chlorus and Flavia Maximiana Theodora, and half sister of Emperor Constantine I.[1][2] She was married to a senator, Bassianus, who was found to be plotting against Constantine and executed in the year 316 CE.[1][2] After Bassianus' death, Anastasia largely disappears from the record. The public baths at Constantinople may he been named after her, though this is unclear.[3] The name Anastasia (Koine Greek: Ἀναστασία, romanized: Anastasía, lit. 'resurrection') may indicate a sympathy on her father's part towards Christian culture.[4]
