Information about Calpurnia Pisonis
Calpurnia Pisonis (1st century BC), daughter of Lucius Calpurnius Piso Caesoninus, was a Roman woman, third and last wife of Julius Caesar. They married in 59 BC with no children resulting from the union. According to sources[1] Calpurnia had a premonition of her husband's murder and tried to warn him in vain. In Shakespeare's play, Calpurnia has a dream that a statue of Caesar was flowing with blood as many Romans wash their hands in the blood. She also encouraged Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus to send word to the senate that Caesar was sick on the day of his death, but Caesar refused to lie. Following Caesar's death on the Ides of March (March 15) of 44 BC, Calpurnia delivered all Caesar's personal papers, including will and notes, and most precious possessions to Mark Antony, one of the new leaders of Rome.
She never re-married after the death of Caesar.
According to the play Julius Caesar(play) Calpurnia wasn't able to bear children to Caesar. Due to this, Caesar has her perform in the Rite of Lupercal to remove her sterility.
A version of Calpurnia was portrayed by Haydn Gwynne in HBO's series Rome.
