Metella Caecilius Iucundus, wife of Caecilius and mother of Quintus and Evelina, was a woman who lived in Pompeii in A.D. 79. She is the most religiously devout of her family: she urges her son to pray to their household gods, and encourages her daughter's psychic gift as a gift from the gods. Like her family, Metella is rescued from Pompeii shortly before the city is buried under the ashes of Mount Vesuvius' explosion. By early A.D. 80, she and her family are living in Rome. Metella, religious as ever, is worshipping a new set of household gods: the Doctor and Donna. (DW: The Fires of Pompeii)
Behind the Scenes
- The Caecilius family (Caecilius, Metella and Quintus) were based on--or at least named after--characters used in Latin textbooks; except for Evelina, who was created by James Moran so she could be a member of the Sibylline Sisterhood.
