Livia- the only death by natural causes?
Doesn't anyone else think Livia dying of old age and not by poisoning, stabbing or suicide quite ironic
She's the ONLY character to die of natural causes :/
Herod died of natural causes...I guess (God only knows what it was)
Octavia, sister of Augustus and mother of Marcellus and Antonia - she died naturally in the same year when Tiberius married Julia (11 BC)
Also, Tiberius' first wife Vipsania (shortly before her son Castor - same, it was mentioned in the book but not in the series)
Julia died of starvation on her island in 14 AD at the age of 53 (in the same year as her father and son)
Urgulanilla (Claudius' wife No. 1) ?
Other deaths in the book:
Aelia Paetina (wife No.2) and Domitia Lepida (mother-in-law) are poisoned by Agrippinilla (in period between 49 - 54 AD, Calpurnia was killed also) and Pallas was killed on Nero's orders in 63 AD.
Helen (daughter of Castor and Livilla) was married for punishment (by order of Tiberius) for some redneck (if I remember correctly). In 42 AD, she took part in a conspiracy against Claudius and she was executed.
Julia (Lesbia in the book), youngest of Caligula's sisters was a victim of Messalina's intrigues. She was executed by Claudius in 42 AD.

There's no mention of how Urgulanilla died. We only see her in one scene and she is mentioned briefly in he following episode. My guess, pardon my sardonic wit, would be she forgot to duck, banged her head rather brutally on one of the stone doorways, and died of an untreated concussion.
