Licinius I, 11 November 308 - 18 September 324 A.D.
|Licinius| |I|, |Licinius| |I,| |11| |November| |308| |-| |18| |September| |324| |A.D.|, In 316, Constantine sent his half-brother Julius Constantius to Licinius at Sirmium, with the proposal to accept Bassianus as Caesar and to allow him to rule in Italy. Licinius refused, accused Bassianus of conspiracy and had him executed. Once again the rival emperors were at war. In early in December 316, Licinius elevated his own man, Aurelius Valerius Valens, the dux limitis (duke of the frontier) in Dacia, to the rank of Augustus. A treaty between Constantine and Licinius was concluded at Serdica on 1 March, 317. Whether it was part of that agreement is unknown, but Licinius had Valens executed.
