 Nepotianus (Constantinus Flavius Popilius), commonly known in English as Nepotian, was the son of a senator of the same name, and of the half sister of Constantine I (the Great) Eutropia. He was consul in A.D. 336.
After the revolt of Magnentius, on June 3rd, 350 AD, Nepotian proclaimed himself emperor and entered Rome with a band of gladiators. At this time he took the title of Augustus, which his gladiatorial mercenaries pretended to confer to him. Anicetus (Praefectus urbi Titianus), prefect of the Praetorians of Rome and supporter of Magnentius attempted to resist Nepotian with an undisciplined force of Roman citizens and was easily defeated. Nepotian easily took the capital of the West.
Nepotian proved to be unpopular and he was hated even more than Magnentius and was unable to maintain his hold on Rome. Within a month Nepotian was killed while desperately defending himself in a battle with Marcellianus, one of Magnentius’ generals.
