Severan Governors

  • Virius Lupus 197 - c. 201
  • Marcus Antius Crescens Calpurnianus c. 202 (Acting governor)
  • Gaius Valerius Pudens c. 202 - c. 205
  • Lucius Alfenus Senecio c. 205 - c. 207

Some sources list a further governor, a second Ulpius Marcellus. He was interpreted as a son of the first Ulpius Marcellus, serving. c. 211. This is based on a misdated inscription and it is now accepted that it refers to the earlier Ulpius Marcellus only.

The two sons of emperor Septimius Severus, Caracalla and Publius Septimius Geta, administered the province to some degree during and immediately after their father's campaigns there which took place between 208 and 211.
