Portrait Request
A portrait that is specifically of Triara and not a group scene would be an improvement to the article. Asarelah (talk) 12:33, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Strangely, the linked article is the only occasion where this woman is ever mentioned. And who is Emperor Lucius Vitellius?

I strongly doubt the reliability of the source or the information. Therefore, the article should be deleted unless other sources are found.

Triaria in De claris mulieribus (Ref 7 in main article)
Triaria, Lucii Vitellii fratris Auli Ro. principis coniunx: anno salutis nostrae nonagesimo, cum multis aliis meritis foret spectabilis, in hoc uno, ob feruidum viri sui amorem, acetiam ob insitam naturae atrocitatem, tantae fuit ferocitatis contra muliebrem morem: quia virago merito venerit appellanda. Discordantibus igitur ob principatum, Vitellio Caesare atque Vespasiano, actum est: ut cum intrassent Terracinam Volscorum oppidum, nonnulli gladiatores sub luliano quodam duce, et remiges etiam plures Romanae classis haud longe a Cyrceo monte sub Apollinario praefecto morantes, et hi cum Vespasiano sentientes, per negligentiam et socordiam tenerentur, serui cuiusdam indicio factum est, ut nocte illa Lucius intraret: Qui dum in semisopitos arma arripientes hostes atque oppidanos infestos ferro saeviret: Triaria haec, quae per noctem virum secuta, civitatem intraverat, in coniugis victoriam avida, gladio accincta, et Vitellianis immixta militibus, nunc huc, nunc illuc, per medias noctis tenebras inter clamores dissonos, et discurren tia tela, sanguinem morientiumque singultus extremos, nil militaris severitatis omittendo, irruebat in miseros, adeo ut crudeliter nimium atque superbe, in hostes egisse relatum sit. Ingentes in sano pectore coniugalis amoris sunt vires, nulla illis, dummodo viri gloria extollatur, formido: nulla pietatis memoria, nulla feminei sexus erubescentia, nulla denique temporum qualitatis extimatio. Potuit Triaria in decus viri ut omnia facili labore subire: quae nedum feminas, quibus ut plurimum mos est in diurno viris obmurmurare, nocte in sinu coniugis foveri, sed robustos iuvenes atque bellicosos horrore quandoque corripere. Et si tanto cum impetu se tulit haec in arma nocturna, mulier, quis credet eam hoc tantum facinore fuisse conspicuam, cum non consueverint, seu exitiosae sint, seu celebres, solae mortalium pectora subire vitutes.

De claris mulieribus, Giovanni Boccaccio, (between 1357 and 1363).

Emperor

 * warning him not to seek a reputation for clemency by endangering the Emperor

I understood Aulus Vitellius as the emperor, but Marcus Plancius Varus says:
 * A Roman woman called Triaria (second wife of Lucius Vitellius the younger and sister-in-law to the brief future Roman Emperor Aulus Vitellius) terrified the City Prefect Titus Flavius Sabinus (brother to future Roman Emperor Vespasian) warning Sabinus not to seek a reputation for clemency by endangering Nero.

so I am not sure which emperor are we talking about. -- Error (talk) 12:05, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
