Specifically, an inscription from Leptis, the ancient Punic city of Lepqī, is presented, celebrating a member of the Septimii, L. Septimius Severus, introduced as the grandfather of the emperor ("Avo domini nostri") who would have served as Sufete (Inscriptions of Roman Tripolitania, 412), an indigenous magistracy of Punic origin. THE THEATER OF LEPTIS Another important element in defining the native origin of the Septimii comes from the poet Statius, who wrote a lyric ode dedicated to a young man named Septimius Severus who had been sent as a child by his family to Veii to study. Statius writes: "Is it possible then that rugged Leptis in the distant Syrtes gave birth to you? Who will ever believe that dear Septimius did not take his first steps on each of Romulus's hills? Who will dare deny that, once weaned, he nourished himself by drinking from the fountain of Juturna? Your virtue should not surprise: even before knowing the shallow-bottomed Africa, you immediately enter the ports of the Ausonians and, adopted, still tiny you sail on the waves of Etruria." And again: "your eloquence is not venal and your sword rests in its sheath, unless your friends beg you to wield it." But the most important passage is 45-46: "non sermo Poenus, non habitus, Tibi externa non mous; Italus, Italus!": "The language you speak is not Punic, nor is your figure Punic, your mentality has nothing foreign: Italian, Italian you are!" After initially emphasizing the African origin, Statius insists several times on how no one would have ever doubted the young man's Romanness, who in language and customs is to be considered Italic. The poetry communicates a great deal between the lines. In the Roman mentality, the memory of the Punic wars and the Hannibalic threat was still very much alive. There is no doubt that the appearance in Italy of the first Libyan and Punic citizens must have aroused many comments and mistrust, which the poet Statius wants to dispel: the speech and mentality of his friend Severus are Italic, because he grew up in Italy. Returning to inscription 412 from Leptis, it is remembered how the emperor's grandfather had first held the position of Sufete and then that of Duumvir, as a consequence of Vespasian's concessions. During Vespasian's reign, in fact, Leptis had been granted the ius latii, that is, Latin rights, and a city that was previously a "peregrine" community, i.e., foreign, is recognized as a municipium, its magistrates are automatically granted Roman citizenship, and their title changes from the indigenous one (in this case the Punic "Sufeti") to the Latin one (Duumviri). Around 120 AD, Lucius Septimius Severus (the grandfather) married an unknown girl from whom he had two sons; one of these was Publius Septimius Geta. Geta married Fulvia Pia, the daughter of a wealthy family of Roman colonials, the Fulvii. From this couple, Lucius Septimius Severus was born around 146 AD, who was to become the first African emperor of Rome. Septimius Severus was therefore partly Punic, at least a quarter, perhaps half, but this is not enough to give us certainty about his phenotype: the Punic world was extremely varied from an ethnic point of view, and as the 2009 study on the onomastics present on the cippi of the Tophet of Carthage by French archaeologists Stephane Bourdin and Sandrine Crouzet revealed, already in the 3rd century BC there were Punic citizens who were children or grandchildren of Greek, Etruscan, Italic, and even Celtic immigrants. #ancientrome #mythbusting #debunkingmyths
