Notes:

There are several possible scenarios., much is conjecture. For example that Proculus descends from cos 97 or the position of Neratia Anteia in the stemma.

Stemma is mainly based on Settipanni's conjectures. I have included the later Neratii after 284 AD.

Also spelled Naeratius in late empire.

Camodeca, Giuseppe: "La carriera del giurista L. Neratius Priscus", in Atti dell' Accademia di scienze morali e politiche LXXXVII , Napoli, 1976, cf AE1976-195, the earlier

assumption of three Prisci generations is disproved, only cos 87 and 97 remain. (NOT AVAILABLE)

Chausson, Francois: "Une hypothèse sur la grand-mère maternelle de Septime Sévère", in Latomus, Tome 57, 1998, pp. 407-414, stemma p.412 has a very different proposal. He suggests

that J732 (L. Iunius Aurelius Neratius etc) mother Fulvia Prisca is the sister of Flavia Neratia (F430) and that Neratia Anteia N65 is a descendent. Settipani disagrees.

Corbier: Aerarium (1974) p.101-109 (§27 L. Neratius Priscus, praef aerar Saturn 93-95, cos suff 97; new inscription AE1976-195 would move this office to his father cos 87), with stemma p.107,

Eck, Werner: " Zur Familie der Neratii aus Saepinum", in ZPE Vol. 50, 1983, p.195-201. Concludes that both the cos 97 and cos 95 could be the husbond of Corellia and thus father of cos 122.
