Talk:Julio-Claudian family tree

message: There are two Agrippinas shown; are they the same? Also, there are two Tiberius Claudius Nero. What is the meaning of the broken lines? AxelBoldt 20:36 Dec 8, 2002 (UTC)
:Agrippina the younger was the daughter of Agrippina the elder.  The elder Tiberius Claudius Nero was the emperor Tiberius; his nephew was the emperor Claudius.  I see you haven't complained about the four women named Julia Caesaris!  See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (ancient Romans) for a discussion of this problem. Gdr 18:19, 2004 May 17 (UTC)
How about an Ahnenreihe ? Hotlorp
I'm not sure is this family tree is understandable, does anyone has a better one to substitute it? Muriel Gottrop

I just substituted the image. I think it's more clear. But it's huge, I know...

:I've substituted a somewhat less huge version of the image. (Is that all right? I should probably have asked first...) -- Paul A
Looks good! I did not knew about the png buisiness... MG

Several things are wrong with or missing from the tree as it now stands.  Antony and Octavia had two daughters.  The elder Antonia, not shown on the tree, was the mother of Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus, who married Agrippina the Younger.  Their son was adopted by Claudius and became known as Nero.  Claudius died in 54, not 51, so Nero became emperor in 54, not 51.  Plinyfan
This family tree should also have a link, or something to indicate Claudius Marcellus was the son of C. Claudius Marcellus and Octavia, otherwise without already knowing this, his random appearance in the tree is somewhat confusing.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.12.215.55 (talk) 18:15, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Was the name of the emperor Nero "Tiberius Claudius Nero" after his adoption? I have not encountered him being called "Tiberius Claudius" in any text; can someone please provide a reference? Lucius Domitius 04:48, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Not that this already complex tree needs any further complication, but it might be worthwile to add Caesarion, Julius Caesar's son by Cleopatra VII of Egypt -- surely a relevant figure who is part of this extended family. --Jfruh 17:45, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

message: If there are no objections I would like make a tree with Template:Familytree so that we can add links and edit it more easily. I am working on a version in my sandbox before I load it here. —David618 t 03:30, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The main problem with the tree is that it doesn't consistently use space semantically: antecedents should be above, descendants should be below. Once you've done that, there's no need to use dashed lines for marriage: it's obvious that people from the same generation cannot parent each other. Remember: it's okay to make readers scroll around to examine a complex tree (I would drop the font size too). Vagary 02:49, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Generally yes, but it has happened, in Rome, that people of the same generation have adopted each other. Also, how to indicate multiple spouses without creating a jumble? BroMonque 20:44, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
