thread_title:  recent news about the fellow and his coinage 

message: I welcome this debate and I am giving your points my consideration. Just to clarify though, I have not made any contributions or changes with regard to coinage.RichardSkelding (talk) 14:34, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I misinterpreted the history there - one of your edits moved the passage I quoted, but didn't add it, it was already there. It's a problematic passage though, and needs attention whoever added it. --Nicknack009 (talk) 16:24, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Initial response

message: I do agree with some of your points. Geoffrey's "history" is not reliable, but it is in the translation from Welsh that the name Caron appears (I don't know, but assume this name appeared in the original Welsh version), I have tried to clarify this. The origin of the Welsh saint Caron is not known, I am trying to make the point that Carausius is a candidate if 'Carausius' became 'Caron' in Welsh. I have also moved the paragraph to the 'Legend' section.
Regarding "Pius Felix Invictus", I agree this would probably be Carausius' opinion of himself and I have made a change to indicate that. I intentionally avoided a full translation of the expanded inscription, I felt "...the pious, the lucky, the invincible" would make it very clumpsy, especially if I included alternative translations of "pius" and "felix".RichardSkelding (talk) 17:33, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Some changes re Caron

message: If you click on the picture of the stone slab, the information accompanying it dates it to the 6th Century CE. This suggests it is unconnected with the Carausius who declared himself emperor in Britain in the late 3rd Century. I would suspect that the picture and the paragraph alongside it should  be removed from this page as irrelevant. Jscb (talk) 15:49, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It is actually dated to the 5th or 6th century. This does suggest it was not contemporary with Carausius, but it could have been commissioned by an early Christian community in the 5th or 6th century to commemorate a newly-named, early Welsh saint based on a remembered leader/king/emperor (cf. 21st century grave marker for Richard III) Emerald (talk) 20:24, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
