Closing the temple doors edit
The article Temple of Janus (Roman Forum) doesn't say Gordian III closed the doors, why is that? --AW 15:43, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Gordian and deification edit
The page currently suggests that Philip did not want Gordian to be deified, but that was quite the opposite. Philip wanted to try and halt rumors that he had a part in Gordian's death. Therefore he rushed Gordian's ashes back to Rome and demanded his deification. See Pat Southern's The Roman Empire: From Severus to Constantine (Routledge, 2001).

Youngest? edit
It says in the article that Gordian III was the youngest emperor of the united Roman Empire. However, according to the dates given, he would have been thirteen years and one hundred ninety one days old when he became emperor while, according to the article on Alexander Severus, Alexander Severus was thirteen years and one hundred forty one days old when he took the throne. Perhaps this should be corrected?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.164.156.186 (talk) 19:17, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
