  1. i think they used pictures to communicate either that or yell at each other
  2. i think mostof the material for king arthur with clive owen is historically accurate most historians agrre he was a roman centurion or a celt that was romanized.
  3. I am curious how many volumes was there in the library of alexandria and how many pages is there in a volume? thank you.
  4. i would like to shake claudius's hand and tell him to mix parchment or papryus with another plant in order to not have acid slowly decay his works he completed.
  5. actually the visitors tothe roman baths did not only bathe it was a lot like a sports facility or health club the patron paid a small fee for admission to the baths the undressed in a room and kept thier clothes in caintes or niches and they either locked it or paid a slave to guard his or her clothing next they entered a cold room where the spashed water on themselves next they enterd a warm room where they submerged them selves in a pool of water which was always draining and being refilled at the same time so as not to receive a infection, next they entered a hot room much like a sauna where they sweated then they had olive oil poured on their flesh then scraped the sweat and olive oil combination off with a blunt curved blade called a stringel then they received a massage and went outdoors to exercise or played competitive games or went inside the libary adjoining the baths building and read or studied and reasearched material with their clothes on of course. PS the romans may have bthed in a mixed bathing establishmet early on usually during the republican period and usually mixed bathing facilities were located in towns and not cities.
  6. if there was a vote in a country to adapt roman culture i beleive it could happen but they would not be able to create a empire just a modern replica of a roman province which was a modern country in ancient times
  7. I think he would have conquered the lands east of lebanon to the southeastern border of india and would have reached china
  8. I beleive the romans were descended from the greek notably in the eastern part of the greek pennisulla so they would look like greeks though several greeks look like the english or welsh and when I say welah or english i mean the early english or welsh before the romans and saxons came.
  9. I am just curious did germanicus's son gaius caligula yes the one who later became emperor have anything to do with his father's death because i have just finished watching I Claudius and it has caligula as one of the murderers of germanicus.
  10. I beleive it was anotonius pius he extended the frontier in britain to the area between the firth of forth and the firth of clyde and had the antonine wall built and 95 percent of the size of the empire under trajan was maintained.
  11. i would bathe in the baths of trajan and get a massage from a slave but pay him since i loathe the idea of slavery
