The second of the Flavian dynasty of the Roman Empire, Titus Caesar Vespasianus (the same name as his father), ruled 79 CE to 81 CE and was well-loved, but did not live very long after becoming emperor. He is most known for suppressing the first Jewish revolt, opening the Colosseum, his generosity to the survivors of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and the Arch of Titus, which every visitor to Rome sees at the entrance to the Forum.
