Retribution and propaganda
The victory over Gildo held fantastic propaganda value for Honorius â and likewise for Stilicho. The emperor was presented as the Westâs savior and as the restorer of the African annona. This message was relayed to the Roman public through coinage (Figure 5.1) and inscriptions.
