Ancient Roman writers were very negative about Elagabalus and did not report anything positive. He was fourteen when he became emperor and his reign lasted only three years and ten months.

Elagabalus was reportedly open about his intimate relationship with his male chariot driver, Hierocles, among others. Under his reign, women were allowed in the Roman Senate, a practice which was banned again after his assassination on March 11, 222.
