Editor's Take:

Titus enjoyed a reputation that few Roman emperors achieved. Writers called him the darling of the human race. His short reign was marked by disasters he handled generously, from Vesuvius to a great fire in Rome. Yet his name is also tied to the siege of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Temple. For Jews that event remains a lasting trauma. He died young after two years in power. His brother Domitian succeeded him.

Key Milestones

70: Captures Jerusalem and destroys the Temple
79: Becomes emperor
79: Leads relief after the eruption of Vesuvius
80: Opens the Colosseum with 100 days of games

Titus Flavius Vespasianus (30 December AD 39 – 13 September 81) was Roman emperor from AD 79 to 81. A member of the Flavian dynasty, Titus succeeded his father, Vespasian, upon his death, becoming the first Roman emperor to succeed his biological father.
