Who is Quintus Antistius Adventus?
Quintus Antistius Adventus was a Roman politician and general.
He served in the Parthian War under Lucius Verus. Antistius Adventus became governor of Germania Inferior, and then of Roman Britain between c. 175 and 178. In 175, 5,500 Sarmatian cavalry troops arrived in Britain. This may represent a reinforcement of embattled British garrisons or be the result of political expediency elsewhere in the empire.
