Julia is the name of two daughters of praetor Gaius Julius Caesar and Aurelia Cotta , the parents of dictator Gaius Julius Caesar . The sisters were born and raised in Rome. The eldest of the two is sometimes named Julia Major (Major Latin for the elder) by historians (but not to be confused with Julia the Elder , daughter of Emperor Augustus ). Likewise, the younger of the two sisters of Julius Caesar is sometimes named Julia Minor, (Minor Latin for the younger) but not to be confused with Julia the Younger , Augustus' first granddaughter.
Second elder sister of Julius Caesar Julia (101 BC-51 BC) was the second sister of Julius Caesar . This Julia married Marcus Atius Balbus, a praetor and commissioner who came from a senatorial family of plebs status. Julia bore Balbus two daughters: Atia Balba Caesonia - mother of first Emperor Augustus and of Octavia Minor . Atia minor. Julia and her mother had given the court a detailed and truthful account about the affair between Pompeia (her sister-in-law) and politician Publius Clodius Pulcher.
