Editing Constantius Gallus (section)

== Family ==
Gallus was a son of [[Julius Constantius]] and his first wife [[Galla (wife of Julius Constantius)|Galla]], who seems to have died at some point prior to 331/2. Gallus' paternal grandparents were the emperor [[Constantius Chlorus]] and his second wife [[Flavia Maximiana Theodora]]. Julius Constantius was a paternal half-brother of the emperor Constantine I, which, in turn, meant Gallus was a half-first cousin of Constantine's sons, [[Constantine II (emperor)|Constantine II]], Constantius II and [[Constans]].

Gallus had three siblings: his elder sister, of unknown name, was the [[Daughter of Julius Constantius|first wife of Constantius II]], and his elder brother, also of unknown name, died in the purges after the death of Constantine I. His younger half-brother, by his father's second marriage to [[Basilina]], was Flavius Claudius Iulianus, commonly known as [[Julian (emperor)|Julian]].
