Anastasia was a daughter of Roman Emperor Constantius Chlorus and Flavia Maximiana Theodora, and half sister of Emperor Constantine I.[1] [2] She was married to a senator, Bassianus, who was found to be plotting against Constantine and executed in the year 316 CE.[1] After Bassianus' death, Anastasia largely disappears from the record. The public baths at Constantinople may he been named after her, though this is unclear.[3] The name Anastasia may indicate a sympathy on her father's part towards Christian culture.
