Ex Soler & Llach 1122 (26 October 2021), lot 891; Triton IV (5 December 2000), lot 650.Furia Sabinia Tranquillina was the daughter of the formidable Gaius Furius Sabinius Aquila Timesitheus, a highly respected career soldier of equestrian rank who rose to become Praetorian Prefect under the young emperor Gordian III. In AD 241, Tranquillina married Gordian, making Timesitheus his father-in-law and guardian. The stage appeared set for a successful dynasty. The next few years appeared to be relatively tranquil, but in early AD 243 Gordian and Timesitheus were forced into arms by an aggressive Persian attack on the eastern frontier. Under the Prefect's guidance, the Romans won a major victory in early AD 244, but at this point Timesitheus fell suddenly ill and died, leaving the young, inexperienced Gordian without his mentor and guardian. In short order Gordian was dead, either slain in battle or the victim of a coup led by his successor, Philip I. It is not known whether Tranquillina was present in camp or back in Rome, but we hear no more of her.
