I can write them in greek for you, I believe. Like mine would be, "κυρος"
I'd just have to greek out your name and then post them.

From Κυρος (Kyros), the Greek form of the Persian name K

Spartan JKM that is some intense work. I mean, I pride myself on knowing something of the ancient world

Jesus dude, it was an on sight translation, and I was joking around. I thought that it was implied? Thanks anyway, yeah, school's on me now, but thanks.

You want me to literally tell you how to ask a small child if he/she came to the gladiatorial games often? lol. I get what you mean, but maybe pick a differnt set of words.
but on a quick translation with no checking or anything, it might be:
Salve, Puella, spectare quotiens gladitorii?
Hey, girl, you watch often the gladitorial games? I'm not too sure about that ending though, i'll check it out later, i'm pretty sure that's a direct translation though*.
*NOT PROPER LATIN.

Ohhh, I'm going to abuse you so much, you're going to regret making this thread.
Lol, go for it; just don

You know, I never really looked into Sulla's reforms, but this looks to me like the streamline for modern day democracy. The United States system of Checks and Balances, and a more open Senate so that there could be more. These movements substantially seem to be moving power away from the consuls and adding more into the Senate, but at the same time

It's actually kind of hard to get a grasp on what the words might mean just phonetically, if you come across the actual lyrics, it'd be much easier.

That might have been a name given to a specific group of Equitatus, but I don

I think Caesar was a better politician and a general, but Trajan was an excellent conqueror. While Caesar conquered Gaul the Roman way,

I actually said yeah, if you took Rome from the reign of Constantine the Great and from there on in, it was Pox Rome, then yeah, give it 100-200 years before the Romans learned to cultivate electricity. It was just, (in the west), almost after Constantine, it as years of bloody civil war so that wasn't getting them anywhere. And those damn Anglo-Saxons and Visigoths were no help either.

Favonius Cornelius, can you post the written results for all the emperors? I think it'll be a while before we get anywhere near it, and we might not get Caligula at all.

Ok, i'm just glad I didn't get Caligula.
Hadrian 86%
Vespasian 79%
Commodus 71%
Trajan 71%
Augustus 64%
Marcus Aurelius 64%
Antoninus Pius 64%
Nerva 50%
Tiberius 43%
Domitian 43%
Claudius 29%
Vitellius 29%
Nero 14%
Caligula 0%
You scored as Hadrian.
You are the great emperor Hadrian. Not only great for the fact that he didn't mess something up, but he relentlessly administered the empire and set viable borders. Art, cultivation and wisdom mark your reign. The fact that you prefer the boys really helps with the wise handing over of the purple to only the most qualified.
Once again, i'm just glad it wasn't Caligula or Nero.. I would have been happier without the whole, "Boys" comment, and the fact that Hadrian was by far the most bi-sexual of emperors.

The only Africa we did was with the Punic wars and the Roman conquest of Egypt. The only pre-Roman Africa we studied was The Aeneid (When Aeneis lands in Phoenicia and the whole Dido [or Alysia] thing) and some early writing studies, the only post-Roman Africa we studied was with random discussions how the world and it

I consider myself to be knowledgeable of all areas of the western Roman Empire. I need to learn more of the eastern Roman Empire. If you want me to set a date on it? I'd say 509BCE-200CE the span of what I know, and i'm not saying I know very much of that time period still, I just know more than I do lets say 200CE-450CE, or 753BCE-509BCE and the Etruscan rule of Rome.

Interesting, but I

Yeah, wow. Imagine having another species of human? That

I also like the gladiators who fought blind!! THe casedari(?) i mentioned fought in chariots!!!Andabatae: (1st cent. BC) Clad in chainmail like eastern cavalry (cataphracti), wore visored helmets without eye holes. They charged blindly at one another on horseback as an ancient precursor to the medieval joust.
What a wonderful site, why did it take me this long to find it

I'm sorry about the text, yeah; I was beginning to consider a normal color. I
