Article · Nederlands

Lucius Aurelius Commodus, ook wel Marcus Aurelius Commodus Antoninus, kortweg Commodus genoemd, (Lanuvium 31 augustus 161 – 31 december 192) was keizer van Rome van 177 tot 192, waarvan de eerste drie jaar medekeizer van zijn vader, Marcus Aurelius. De klassieke, mogelijk partijdige geschiedschrijving van de Historia Augusta - in dit artikel gevolgd - beschouwt hem als een van de slechtste keizers van het Romeinse Rijk. In ieder geval viel Commodus slecht bij de Romeinse Senaat. Via zijn vader was hij lid van de belangrijke Romeinse gens Aurelia.
