Abstract
This contribution explores some actions of Aelia Eudoxia and Arcadius in religious matters to argue that they responded to a duly hierarchical, concerted strategy and with roles distributed between them. The Augusta played the effective and necessary co-operator role in certain initiatives that the emperor could not undertake without having his image diminished.
