Valentinus (rebel)
Valentinus ( century), often anglicized to Valentine, was a Roman criminal and rebel put down after Count Theodosius's arrival in Britain in 369.
Ammianus Marcellinus records that Valentinus was a Pannonian whose brother-in-law Maximinus was close to the emperor . Having committed some serious crime, he was able to have his sentence commuted to exile to Britain, where he resided at the time of the Great Conspiracy. Ammianus does not record that Valentinus took part in that barbarian rising, but does claim that he began planning a new revolt after the arrival of Theodosius. He organized fellow exiles and attempted to bribe local troops to his cause. Discovered, he was given over to Duke Dulcitius for execution, but Ammianus notes that investigation into Valentinus's plot was cursory, lest it produce more unrest in the province.〔Ammianus Marcellinus. ''Rerum gestarum Libri XXXI)'' (Books of Deeds'' ). 391. Translated by Charles Yonge. ''Roman History'', Vol. XXVIII, Ch. III. Bohn (London), 1862. Hosted at Wikisource.〕
Valentinus' story illustrates the instability in Roman Britain at the time, the widespread discontent with Roman rule, and the lengths that Theodosius was prepared to go to keep the peace.
