In

Roman religion

, Concord (Latin:

Concordia, “harmony”) was the

goddess of agreement, understanding, and marital harmony. Her Greek version is

Harmonia

, and the Harmonians and some

Discordians

equate her with

Aneris

. Her opposite is Discordia (or the Greek

Eris
).The

cult of Concordia

Augusta

(“Majestic Harmony”) was of special importance to the

imperial household

. Dedicatory inscriptions to her, on behalf of emperors

and members of the imperial family, were common. The oldest

Temple of Concord

, built in

367 BC
by

Marcus Furius Camillus

, stood on the

Roman

Forum
. Other temples and shrines in Rome dedicated to Concordia were largely

geographically related to the main temple.

Ulpia Severina was the only

Empress

ruling the Roman Empire in her own right. She was the wife of Roman

emperor Aurelian

, by whom she had a daughter. Very little is known about her, as

there are no literary sources mentioning her existence. Almost everything known

about her, including her name, is gathered from coins and inscriptions.

Aurelian married Severina before becoming emperor. According

to coinage depicting her, Severina gained the title

Augusta

in the autumn of

274 A.D. She also

received the titles of Pia (“pious”)

and mater castrorum et senatus et patriae

(“mother of the barracks (armies), senate, and country”).

It is presumed that she was a daughter of Ulpius Crinitus,

although this is based on the unreliable

Historia Augusta

and thus, is purely speculative.

Some scholars believe that she was from

Dacia
, where the

nomen

Ulpius
 was

common due to the influence of

Trajan
.

According to

Historia Augusta

, Aurelian regularly presented Ulpia

sigillaria

by the end of

Saturnalia
,

according to tradition.

There is considerable numismatic evidence for Severina ruling

in her own right between the death of Aurelian and the election of

Marcus Claudius Tacitus

.
