1. Birth at Hippo Regius

   0069-01-01 · Hippo Regius, Annaba, Algeria

   

   Suetonius was probably born at Hippo Regius, the North African town whose archaeological site lies beside modern Annaba. This is the earliest securely documented location in his life. The birth year is approximate, and ancient sources do not conclusively settle the birthplace; Hippo Regius is the majority scholarly attribution.
