Iusta Grata Honoria (soeur de Valentinien III)
Tremissis, Ravenna, 414-453, AU 1.44 g.
Ref : RIC 2068, Dep. 47/10, Ranieri 93
Ex Vente Gorny 121, 10 March 2003, Lot 532
Conservation : TTB. Rarissime
Obligée de se fiancer au sénateur Flavio Basso Ercolano, Honoria au printemps 450 avait envoyé au roi des Unions une demande d’aide, à laquelle était jointe sa propre bague, afin de se substituer à cette union : ce n’était pas une demande en mariage mais Attila interpretta le message dans ce sens et accepta en prétendant donner en dote la moitié de l’Empire. Quand Valentiniano découvrit l’intrigue, seule l’intervention de la mère Galla Placidia a suffit à le convaincre d’envoyer Honoria en exil au lieu de la tuer et un message à Attila, dans lequel il méconnaissait absolument la légitimité de la présente proposition matrimoniale. Attila, pour rien convaincu, envoya une ambassade à Ravenne pour affirmer qu’Honoria n’avait aucune faute, que la proposition était valide du point de vue juridique et qu’il serait venu pour exiger ce que c’était son droit. Quand sa demande fut refusée, il envahie l’empire en 451 et 452.
