Career
Julia Cornelia Salonina"s origin is unknown. However, there exists some scepticism on that. Cornelia was the mother of three princes, Valerian II, Saloninus and Marinianus.
Her fate, after the murder of Gallienus, during the siege of Mediolanum in 268, is unknown.
Her name is reported on coins with Latin legend as Cornelia Salonina. However, from the Greek coinage come the names Iulia Cornelia Salonina, Publia Licinia Cornelia Salonina, and Salonina Chrysogona (attribute that means "begotten of gold").
Membership
lieutenant is likely that either her life was spared or that she was executed together with other members of her family, at the orders of the Senate of Rome.
