*** Aurelius Achilleus was a Roman usurper who led a revolt in Egypt against Emperor Diocletian around 297–298 AD, acting as a key figure in a, perhaps, shared rebellion with Domitius Domitianus. He was eventually besieged in Alexandria by Diocletian and put to death following the fall of the city. The rebellion was suppressed after a roughly eight-month siege of Alexandria by Diocletian, resulting in Achilleus' execution in 298 AD ***
