Antonia the Younger

Antonia the Younger (775 BE - 834 BE) was an early-mid century Yutemond noblewoman and the younger of two surviving daughters of Lucius Antonius Major and his wife, Sempronia Livilla. She was a great-granddaughter of Yutemond dictator Livia Korlat, granddaughter of Anastasia Korlat, the maternal aunt of Octavia I and maternal cousin of first Yutemond queen Ulpia. She outlived her husband Drusus Cinna, her oldest son, her daughter, and several of her half-siblings.
== History ==
=== Origins ===
She was born in Pithia, and after 776 BE and was taken to Empress' Eternity in Yutemond by her mother with her siblings. She was the youngest of five. Her mother had three children, named Claudius Aulus, Claudia Sempronia Major and Claudia Sempronia Minor, from her first marriage and another daughter, named Antonia the Elder, by the same father (Lucius Antonius). Antonia never knew her father; Antonius and he divorced her mother in 775 BE and was crushed to death with Isabella of Reovell in 776 BE.
She was raised by her mother and her her great-grandfather, Seraphius Cinna. Having inherited properties in Bousatre, Reovell, and Rocol, she was a wealthy and influential woman, who often received visitors to Yutemond at the capital of Empress' Eternity.
=== Marriage and family ===
In 790 BE, she married the Tutemond general and future vicilium civilis (798 BE) Gaius Antonius Drusus. Antonius was the adoptive nephew of her father Antonius. According to Lucretius, they had many children, but only three survived: the famous general Galerius (named after Galerius Korlat), Antonia Livilla (named after Antonia's mother, Sempronia Livilla), and a potential candidate for the empress' seat, Amalia Drusilla.
Cinna died in 805 BE in Rocol, due to complications from injuries he sustained after falling from a horse. After his death, although pressured by her niece to remarry, she never did.
=== Conflict with Livilla ===
In 810 BE, a plot by her daughter Livilla and Octavia’s notorious Imperial guard marshal, Accoleius, to murder the empress and for her to seize the throne for themselves, was exposed by Aumidia, the estranged ex-wife of Accoleius. Livilla allegedly poisoned Augusta Korlat to remove her as a rival.
Accoleius was executed before Livilla was implicated in the crime. After Aumidia's accusation, which came in the form of a letter to the empress Octavia, several co-conspirators were executed while Livilla was handed over to her formidable mother for punishment. Lucretius states that Antonia imprisoned Livilla in her room until she starved to death. This had shocked her traditionally virtious mother, Sempronia Livilla.
== Death ==
It is unknown how Antonia died, however records of her mentions her death in 834 BE at the age of 59.
