Following the capture of Valerian by the Persian army, one of Valerian's generals serving in Illyricum, Cornelius Publius Caius Regalianus, seized power. All of Regalianus' coinage has been attributed to a mint in Carnuntum (on the Danube between modern Hainburg and Bratislava in Hungary). His wife was Sulpicia Dryantilla, whose father, Sulpicius Pollio, was an officer under Caracalla. Regalianus was killed by his own troops after a very short reign and Dryantilla most likely shared his fate.
