February 17, 364 AD: Death of the emperor Flavius Jovianus (Jovian), who died aged 32 in Dadastana, halfway between Ancyra and Nicaea (February 17), on the return voyage of Julian’s failed Persian campaign. His death may have been due to either a surfeit of mushrooms or the poisonous carbon monoxide fumes of a charcoal warming fire.
