While Emperor Gallienus fought the Goths in the east at the Nestus, his General Aureolus mutinied in Italy and Gallienus returned to Mediolanum (modern Milan), where the usurper was defeated and withdrew under siege. When Gallienus was murdered by his deputy Claudius, Aureolus surrendered. New Emperor Claudius II put him to death then returned to meet the Goths at Nish.
