Nero Redivivus

Nero was the fifth and final emperor of Rome's first imperial dynasty, the Julio-Claudians.

The Nero Redivivus legend was a belief popular during the last part of the 1st century that the Roman emperor Nero would return after his death in 68 AD. The legend was a common belief as late as the 5th century.[1] The belief was either the result or cause of several imposters who posed as Nero leading rebellions.
