• Caracalla was Roman emperor of Berber descent from 211 until his death
• He was the 22nd Roman Emperor and born in Lugdunum, Gaul (now Lyon, France) as the eldest son of Septimius Severus and Julia Domna.
• He was later given the nickname Caracalla, which referred to the Gallic hooded tunic he habitually wore and which he made fashionable.
• Caracalla is remembered as one of the most notorious and unpleasant of Emperors because of the massacres and persecutions he authorized and instigated throughout the Empire.
• He is also one of the emperors who commissioned a large public bath-house (thermae) in Rome. The remains of the Baths of Caracalla are still one of the major tourist attractions of the Italian capital.
