late 1st, early 2nd c. A. D.

*aka Dio Cassius, Claudius Cassius Dio

Lucius, grandson of Augustus in I, Claudius by Robert Graves, Although Augustus hoped that Lucius would rise to power as an adult, the young Lucius dies in a boating accident.

(Although I read the book and saw the British TV production, I haven't figured out what his family name was.)

Lucius, male's name, Italian, Meaning: light

Lucius Shepard ,1947 American writer

Many more names with Lucius

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucius

Note: play on the variations of "Lucius" and surname-"Shepard". Names with "Lucius" are being revealed.

"I haven't figured out what
('Lucius' of I Claudius's)
family name was." (54)

I would have to look that up (and I'm a classicist!) I would assume the family name (nuclear family, not extended) would be "Caesar",
which had become the emperor Augustus's surname when he was adopted by Julius Caesar. But that became a title meaning only the emperor (princeps).

Historians call the dynasty
"Julio-Claudians" but that name is made up of TWO
"gentile" (clan, or extended family) names:
"Iulius", which was Julius Caesar's gentile name and "Claudius" (the Julians intermarried with the Claudian gens.) No birth son of an emperor became emperor until Vespasian's son: Domitian and that was a different dynasty: the Flavians. The Julio-Claudians were all
adopted sons.

Lucius Beebe, railroad historian, bon vivant, journalist, columnist.

ETA: #56: Not "gentile", which is English. Gens / gentes in Latin. The taxonomic term 'genus' is a cognate.

"Van der Donck is a central figure in Russell Shorto's The Island at the Center of the World, which argues, based on newly translated records from the colony, that he was a great early American patriot, forgotten by history because of the eventual English conquest of New Netherland...

Today, he is also recognized as a sympathetic early Native American ethnographer,... having learned the languages and observed many of the customs of the Mahicans and Mohawks. His descriptions of their practices are cited in many modern works, such as the 2005 book 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus" by Charles C. Mann.
