Anastasia (fl. 310s) was a Roman woman of the Constantinian dynasty (a line of rulers who governed the Roman Empire during Late Antiquity).[1] Anastasia was the daughter of the Roman emperor Constantius I, the half-sister of the emperor Constantine the Great, and the wife of Bassianus.[1][2]

Anastasia's mother was Flavia Maximiana Theodora, the wife of Constantius I.[2][3] (It is also possible that Anastasia was the daughter of Helena, mother of Constantine I, and not a daughter of Maximiana Theodora.)[4]: 184 [5]: 120–121 

Anastasia was written about by the Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus and the writer of the Anonymus Valesianus, a Latin history.[6] The Notitia Urbis Constantinopolitanae says that Roman baths in Constantinople (the Romans' capital city) had Anastasia's name.[6] Anastasia's name (Koinē Greek: Ἀναστασία, romanized: Anastasía, lit. 'resurrection') may mean that her father had sympathy for Christian or Jewish culture.[7]

There is no evidence that any of Constantius's daughters married before their father died.[8] Anastasia's sister Constantia may have been the first to marry, and may have been the oldest of the siblings. Constantia married in 313.[8] Anastasia herself married Bassianus in 316[8] or in 314.[9] At that time, Anastasia's half-brother Constantine was emperor. He planned to make Bassianus caesar (a junior co-emperor). Anastasia's brother-in-law Licinius (Constantine's junior co-emperor) did not want this to happen, and Bassianus did not become caesar. After this Constantine executed Bassianus. The Anonymus Valesianus says that Bassianus's execution was because Bassianus planned treason.[9] What became of Anastasia is unknown.[2] The encyclopaedia Brill's New Pauly says that Anastasia "must have still been alive" when Constantine built the city of Constantinople, because of the Roman baths there with her name (Latin: Thermae Anastasianae).[10]

In the 5th century, the Greek historians of Socrates Scholasticus and Sozomen both wrote that the Thermae Anastasianae got their name from another Anastasia, a daughter of the emperor Valens. This information is not correct.[11]
