 2006 (UTC)  :Vespasian mentioned it in his autobiography. (He was in Britain with the military at the time.) The story goes that Claudius built the temple himself in 43 AD and had it dedicated to himself as God. I don't know if Vespasian's autobiography survived, but there are mentions of it in Dio Cassius and in (IIRC) Bede.  05:51, 26 August
