Eutropia (died after 325), a woman of Syrian Greek origin, was the wife of emperor Maximian.
Personal life
In the late 3rd century, she married Maximian, though the exact date of this marriage is unknown. By Maximian, she had two children: Maxentius (c. 280–312), Roman emperor from 306 to 312, and Fausta (c. 290), the second wife of Constantine the Great and mother of emperors Constantine II, Constantius II, and Constans.
There is some doubt as to whether Flavia Maximiana Theodora, wife of Constantius Chlorus, was a daughter of Eutropia by an earlier husband, Afranius Hannibalianus or whether she was a daughter of Maximian by an earlier anonymous wife.
