Queen of Bithynia
Derogatory epithet for Julius Caesar
Queen of Bithynia
The Queen of Bithynia (Latin: Bithynica regina) was a mock ancient epithet of Julius Caesar referencing his alleged homosexual relationship with King Nicomedes IV of Bithynia. The epithet and related rumour were repeatedly invoked by several of Caesar's contemporaries, such as Cicero, Licinius Calvus, Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus and Gaius Memmius. The author, Philip Freeman claims Caesar himself denied such allegation under oath.
