Titus
The successor of Vespasian was his son Titus, who during the reign of his father had
conquered and destroyed Jerusalem.
He ruled only two years, from 79 to 81 a.C.., was a very good emperor and opened
the Colosseum to the public. Unfortunately during his reign in 79 a terrible event
happened: Vesuvius erupted and destroyed the towns of Herculaneum, Pompeii
and Stabia.
