Wait. It was said that it must be Roman Empire? It also could be Holy Roman Empire (Germany in medieval). Or Byzanthine Empire. It was also roman theorethically.

Also: Heliogabal was collecting spider webs! Proof?

I believe so. Riordan stays ancient mostly. Of course. For example "Scriptores Historiae Augustae" in chapter about him. He started his reign when he was 14, was murdered when 18. Had 4 wives, one husband and was prostitute. And had a lot of make-up. The worst of emperors, perfect crazy emperor. In a dress. Hold up....There was a Roman Emperor that was gay? At least. Prior to the widespread influence of the Catholics church Homosexuality wasn't really condemned.
