Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa (c. 23 October or November 64/63 BC – 12 BC) was a Roman statesman and general. He was a close friend, son-in-law, and lieutenant to Augustus and was responsible for his most important military victories, most notably at the Battle of Actium against the forces of Mark Antony and Cleopatra. As a result of these victories Octavian became the first Roman Emperor, adopting the name of Augustus. Agrippa was also father-in-law of the second Emperor Tiberius, maternal grandfather to Caligula, and maternal great-grandfather of the Emperor Nero.
