Claudia Pulchra (14 BC – AD 26) (PIR2 C 1116) was a Patrician woman of Ancient Rome who lived during the reigns of the Roman emperors Augustus and Tiberius.
She was a daughter of Claudia Marcella Minor and the Roman consul of 12 BC, Marcus Valerius Messalla Appianus.
[2] There has been some speculation among historians such as George Patrick Goold[3] that her father might actually have been Publius Claudius Pulcher (the son of Clodius) but others such as Ronald Syme have rejected this proposal.
[7] Her husband committed suicide in September AD 9 during the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, Germania Inferior[8] and she never remarried.
[9] Gnaeus Domitius Afer accused her of an attempt to poison Tiberius, casting magic and immorality.
