Edit needed?Edit

A reader wrote to the Wikimedia Foundation noting the opening sentence of the Biography section:

In 315 Constantine I went to Italy, where he was to be married to his sister Anastasia.

implies Constantine went to Italy to marry his own sister.

The person suggests:


Constantine sent Bassianus to Italy, to marry his (Constantine's) sister Anastasia.

Can someone more familiar with the subject matter make the correction, if appropriate?--SPhilbrick(Talk) 15:50, 12 February 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
