Ancient history

Servilia Caepionis

Servilia Caepionis is the mother of Brutus and former mistress of Caesar, who also gave him a black pearl worth six million sesterces (colossal for the time). Aristocrat and fervent follower of the Republic. She is the sister of Cato of Utica, more precisely a half-sister of Cato. They have the same mother Livia, but a different father, Cato:son of Cato and Livia and Servilia:daughter of Servilius Cépion and Livia. Rumor has it that his son Brutus would be the son of Caesar but this is not verified.
