Hi there,
Thank you all for the great site and community. I found UNRV looking for good background reading for my research paper which is focused on the decline of the Roman Republic. I have found this site to be a great resource and can finally read Plutarch and Livy and understand them. I have found this period in history to be fascinating and will surely learn all I can about it.
Before seeing busts of them, I did not imagine them like that either. I had imagined Crassus a bit chubbier then he really is (I don't know, I think I heard somewhere that he was a bit on the heavy side).
The legionaries have been flung in the air by the elephant.
BTW, the 4 heads are (1) Gaius Julius Caesar (2) Marcus Crassus (3) Gaius Marius and (4) Pompey the Great.
I decided to make a Roman Mount Rushmore for an image for my Rome related research paper and since I've been doing a lot of background reading on UNRV (read the whole history of Rome), I thought I would show you all for affirmation and critique.

What do you all think?
p.s. awesome site!
I am doing a research paper on the decline of the Roman Republic and have found UNRV to be a great source for information. I couldn't find a specific place on the site where it mentioned the author(s) or citing info so I was wondering how I should cite it.
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy Olson
