[edit] Place of birth

The following is mostly for my own reference.

http://www.thelatinlibrary.com/victor.caes2.html#38.1 (Reference, in Latin, for Marcus Aurelius Carus' birth in Naron. "38 1 Carus, Narbonae natus, imperavit annos duos." ) http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Historia_Augusta/Carus_et_al*.html (A subsequent reference in English.)

Heck, suddenly I'm finding that the birthplace of Carus is controversial. I'm going to revert my edit pending more research. I assume no one watches this page. If so... pointers to more documentation on this matter would be appreciated. Zeno Izen 01:57, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] We need a DAB page for Carus

There are a few "Carus" last names. I believe that WP tries to accommodate those who may not have the full name right by directing them to a DAB page. To do that this existing Carus article would need to be moved. To what name should it be moved? Marcus Aurelius Carus seems the right choice, but I would like the agreement of those watching the page. DCDuring 03:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
