People also ask
Why was Maesa important?
Her historical prominence, however, was due to the fact that her sister, Julia Domna, married Septimius Severus in 187, who thereafter reigned as Rome's emperor (193–211). Since Domna's connections promised greater things than Emesa could ever offer, Maesa followed her sister to the heart of the empire.
