Who acknowledged her title of Augusta?
Claudius
Tiberius
Augustus
Caligula
Answer
After Agrippina's death, Claudius acknowledged her title of Augusta, and also gave her a funeral befitting her status as a member of the imperial family. This was a surprising move, as Claudius had been known to be hostile to his mother-in-law, and had even ordered her death. However, Claudius may have been motivated by political considerations, as he needed to maintain the support of the imperial family and its supporters.
