    New Roman Emperor Discovered!

    By Guest, in News,

    In an incredible development on the archeology scene, it appears that a new, even if short-lived, Roman Emperor has been discovered. Emperor Domitianus (IMP C DOMITIANUS P F AUG), not to be confused with the Domitian of the 1st century AD, was likely a British usurper who ruled in 271 AD. The dying days of the break away Gallic Empire may have more secrets in store, but the excavation of this coin (re-affirming another found a century ago), is ground breaking in more ways than one.

    The Republic, the Senate and more.

    By Guest, in News,

    The "History of Rome" series has been updated with several new articles relating to the
    Birth of the Roman Republic.
     
    For the convenience of our visitors, the text is broken down by related segments and posted separately. The "Struggle of the Orders" is a reflection on the conflict between patrician and plebeian classes in early Rome. The "Republican Constitution" breaks down the government into 3 categories roughly corresponding to more modern systems. Of the 3 categories, the "Executive Branch" describes the Curule Magistrates or executive offices, and the "Legislative Branch" describes the basics of the 3 people's assemblies. Finally, the "Roman Senate" gives an outline of responsibilities and duties of one of history's most famous governing bodies.

    Publius Cornelius Tacitus

    By Guest, in News,

    The biography section is being expanded with an addition on the Roman historian Publius Cornelius Tacitus. The writer who gave us several important works such as the Annals and Agricola is one of the few sources in ancient history to give us any information on the Germanic people. Revered, disputed and debated for 2 centuries, Tacitus is among the greatest of the ancient historians.
