{{ambig|subject=[[hive]]|disambiguation=Aurelian}}
'''Aurelian Hive''' was a [[Hive|hive city]] on the planet [[Caligula (Hive World)|Caligula]].{{Fn|1}}
When the forces of [[Chaos]] ravaged the [[Sabbat Worlds|Sabbat Worlds Cluster]], most of Caligula fell under their control until the [[Imperial]] forces of the [[Sabbat Worlds Crusade]] arrived to liberate the planet. Once the Imperials had pacified [[Nero Hive]] and Aurelian Hive and established a defensive presence on the planet, the supplies stored in Aurelian were earmarked for distribution to the other hives - in particular [[Hive Calphernia]].{{Fn|1}}
==Trivia==
{{Trivia}}
*Caligula and many of the settlements on it share their names with various Emperors of the ancient Roman Empire. In this case, "Aurelius" was a fairly common given name for Emperors; the hive might be named for either [[Wikipedia:Aurelian|Emperor Aurelian]] or possibly [[Wikipedia:Marcus Aurelius|Emperor Marcus Aurelius]].
