The Eastern Roman Emperor Leo I emperor Leo I appointed Anthemius Western Emperor in 467, and so Alypia s marriage became an important moment in Anthemius rule. Anthemius married his daughter to Ricimer , the magister militum of the West and power behind the throne the aim of this bond was to strengthen the relationship between Anthemius and his magister militum , who had already deposed three Western Emperors. However Alypia s marriage did not bring peace between the Emperor and his general, possibly because the two of them had no children. In April 472, Ricimer appointed Olybrius as Emperor, in opposition to Anthemius, who, together with his family, was besieged in Rome. Around middle July, Anthemius and his family were captured by Ricimer Anthemius was beheaded, while no information is known about Alypia.

Here Alypia s figure is smaller than her mother s, as a sign of respect, but the two women dress the same vestments, those typical of the augusta honorific augusta it is therefore possible that both Euphemia and Alypia were appointed augustae .

  1. Isidore of Miletus

    Isidore of Miletus ,in Greek language Greek was one of the two Greeks Greek architects the other being Anthemius of Tralles Anthemius of Ayd n Tralles who designed the church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople what is today Istanbul in Turkey . The Emperor Justinian I decided to rebuild the 4th century basilica in Constantinople which was destroyed during the Nika riots of 532. He employed Isidore of Miletus along with Anthemius of Tralles . Isidore of Miletus had earlier taught physics in Alexandria, Egypt and then later at Constantinople , and had written a commentary on earlier books on building. He had also collected and publicized the writings of Eutocius , which were commentaries on the mathematics of Archimedes and Apollonius , and consequently helped to revive interest in their works. Through this act, these most important of writings have been preserved and passed on to future generations. Furthermore, he was also an able mathematician, to him we owe the T square and string construction of a parabola and possibly also the apocryphal Book XV of Euclid s Elements Euclid s Elements . ref cite book last Boyer authorlink Carl Benjamin Boyer title year 1991 chapter Revival and Decline of Greek Mathematics page 193 quote His colleague and successor in the building of St. Sophia, Isidore of Miletus floruit fl. 520 , also was a mathematician of some ability.
