Archaeological News for the Roman EmpireAugust 18, 2003The latest of very interesting news regarding the Roman Empire and general archaeological news are BasiliscusAugust 15, 2003Flavius Basiliscus was the brother of Aelia Verina, Leo I's widow. He was married to Zenonis and they had a son, Marcus. Basiliscus had his military career under Leo I and he became, in AD 464, 'Master of Soldiers' in Thrace, where on several occasions he successfully defeated invaders and reached the consulate in 465. Basiliscus was also in command of the disastrous expedition against the Vandals in 468 were a large fleet was sent to deal with the Vandals of Northern Africa. The circumstances for this disaster remain clouded under some controversy but it seems certain that he accepted a bribe from Geiseric (boat full of gold) to halt the invasion, giving the Vandals time to recoup and start a counterattack and defeated Basiliscus men.
