But I wouldn't have turned down a cruise on Caligula's royal barge, well as long as he wasn't on it at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skarr Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Here is a video with a Byzantine flame thrower. http://www.history.com/minisite.do?content...p;mini_id=52979 That flame thrower looked like a pretty mean weapon, wouldn't have fancied coming up against that! But I wouldn't have turned down a cruise on Caligula's royal barge, well as long as he wasn't on it at the same time Interesting clip, no doubt. However, what is most revolting is the other clip on Caligula's extravagant palace and temple ships which must have severely drained the carefully accumulated resources of the Empire in the pursuit of "hedonistic" pleasures, as one commentator notes. What a waste of money and time! This was the real downfall of the Roman system when one insane monarch could hold the entire empire to ransom with his childish pursuits as he sought to bring reality to many of his fantasies or I would rather say, delusions. If that act of building such ships didn't prove him to be completely insane, I wonder what else would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
