Drusus Germanicus, Nero Claudius, called Drusus Senior (38 BC-AD 9), Roman general. He was the younger son of Livia Drusilla , wife of Emperor Augustus, by her first husband, Tiberius Claudius Nero. Drusus Senior was thus the brother of Emperor Tiberius and stepson of Emperor Augustus. He served as a general under Tiberius against the Rhaeti and Vindelici in 15, and from 13 until 10 he was governor of the three Gallic provinces. In 9 he held an army against the German peoples of the Elbe region, penetrating farther than previous Roman armies. Drusus Germanicus died after a fall from his horse. Germanicus Caesar and Emperor Claudius I were his sons. - [1]
