Pompeia
Plotina Claudia Phoebe Piso, or simply Pompeia Plotina (died 121/122) was a
Roman Empress and wife of Roman Emperor Trajan. She was renowned for her
interest in philosophy, and her virtue, dignity and simplicity. She was
particularly devoted to the Epicurean philosophical school in Athens, Greece. She
is often viewed as having provided Romans with fairer taxation, improved
education, assisted the poor, and created tolerance in Roman society.
