Editing Antonia Minor (section)

===Marriage and family===
In 16 BC, she married the Roman general and future consul (9 BC) [[Nero Claudius Drusus]]. Drusus was the stepson of her uncle Augustus, second son of Livia Drusilla, and brother of future Emperor [[Tiberius]]. They had many children, but only three survived: the famous general [[Germanicus]], [[Livilla]], and the Roman Emperor [[Claudius]].<ref name=Kikkinos11>{{Cite book|title=Antonia Augusta: Portrait of a Great Roman Lady|last=Kokkinos|first=Nikos|publisher=Psychology Press|year=1992|isbn=9780415080293|pages=11}}</ref>

A poem by [[Crinagoras of Mytilene]] mentions Antonia's first pregnancy, which may be of a child before Germanicus who must have died in infancy or early childhood.<ref name=Kikkinos11/><ref>{{Cite book|title=Matrona Docta: Educated Women in the Roman Élite from Cornelia to Julia Domna|last=Hemelrijk|first=Emily Ann|publisher=Psychology Press|year=2004|isbn=9780415341271|pages=109}}</ref><ref>{{cite thesis|url=https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10098742/1/out.pdf |title=An Edition with Commentary of the Selected Epigrams of Crinagoras|last=Ypsilanti|first=Maria|year=2003|publisher=University College London}}</ref>

Drusus died in June 9 BC in [[Germany]], due to complications from injuries he sustained after falling from a horse. After his death, although pressured by her uncle to remarry, she never did.

Antonia raised her children in Rome. Tiberius adopted Germanicus in 4 AD.<ref>(Suetonius Tiberius 15, Gai. 1., Div. Claudius 2)</ref> Germanicus died in 19 AD, allegedly poisoned through the handiwork of [[Gnaeus Calpurnius Piso (consul 7 BC)|Gnaeus Calpurnius Piso]] and [[Munatia Plancina]]. Tacitus suggests but does not outright say in ''Annals'' 3.3 that, on the orders of [[Tiberius]] and Livia Drusilla, Antonia was forbidden to go to his funeral. When Livia Drusilla died in June of [[29 AD]], Antonia took care of her younger grandchildren Caligula, Agrippina the Younger, [[Julia Drusilla]], [[Julia Livilla]], and later [[Claudia Antonia]].{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}
