Ventotene

Ventotene is an island in the Tyrrhenian Sea, off the coast of Campania, Italy. It is the remains of an ancient volcano, and is part of the Pontine Archipelago .

In Roman times it was known as Pandateria. Best known as the Island to which the Emperor Tiberius banished his grand-niece Agrippina the elder in AD29. She either starved herself to death or was murdered on the Emperor's commands on October 18 AD33. After her son Gaius (better known as Caligula) became Emperor in AD37 he went to Pandataria to collect her remains and brought them back to Rome.
