ROMAN PRISONS
The most famous Roman prison can still be visited today. It is located just outside the Forum Romanum buried at the foot of the Capitoline Hill. It was Ancus Marcius, the fourth king of Rome, who, sometime during his reign (640-616 BC) constructed this dark, damp and foreboding subterranean structure. One enters the prison today byfollowing
D - ROMAN EMPIRE GLOSSARY Diodorus Siculus Sicilian Greek historian who lived from 90 to 21 BC. Dionysius of Halicarnassus Greek teacher of rhetoric and a distinguished literary critic. Doctors Profession outside of the legions was considered long an unworthy job. Domitian Emperor Titus Flavius Domitianus was the youngest son of Vespasian and Domitilla. N - ROMAN EMPIRE GLOSSARY Nero Last emperor of the Julio - Claudian line. Nerva Emperor succeeding Domitian. Noricum Noricum was incorporated into the Roman Empire in 16 B.C. Numerals Aside from the lack of "zero", the modern system and the ancient are remarkably similar. Numerianus Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius Numerianus reined from AD 283 to AD 284. CORSICA - PROVINCE OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE Soon after the beginning of the first Punic War (264-241 BCE) the Romans took Alalia (259 BCE.) and began their conquest of Corsica. But the interior was not pacified until 162 BCE. Towards 100 BCE Alalia city was rebuilt and renamed Aleria, it became a great economic capital with its fortifications, hot springs and important naval base. ANCIENT ROMAN DOCTORS The 'doctors' in ancient Rome were not nearly as highly regarded as the doctors in Greece. The profession itself, outside of the legions, was considered a low social position, fit for slaves, freedmen and non-latin citizens, mainly Greeks. While there were some who were respected, most were considered just as they were, cheaters, liars andquacks.

With expansion, Roman censors found that accurate census taking in the provinces was a difficult task at best. To ease the strain, taxes were assessed as a tithe on entire communities rather than on individuals. Tax assessments in these communities fell under the jurisdiction of Provincial governors and various local magistrates, using rules similar to the old system.CARTHAGINIAN SENATE
The Punic government was superficially similar to the Romans insofar as it had two chief magistrates, a council of oligarchic families (the "senate" in question, I suppose), and a lower body of commoners.

Ancient Roman medicine was a combination of some limited scientific knowledge, and a deeply rooted religious and mythological system. While knowledge of anatomy was quite impressive, and many surgical techniques were only surpassed in the modern age, the application of medicines and cures was simplistic and largely ineffective.ROMAN PRISONS

ATTILA THE HUN: ARCH ENEMY OF ROMEby Ian Hughes
Attila the Hun is a household name. Rising to the Hunnic kingship around 434, he dominated European history for the next two decades. Attila bullied and manipulated both halves of the Roman empire, forcing successive emperors to make tribute payments or face invasion. Ian Hughes recounts Attila's rise to power, attempting to untangle his character and motivations so far as the imperfect sources allow. Click Here to Read More  25 - January 2019
ROME AND AMERICA: THE GREAT REPUBLICS by Walter Signorelli In _Rome and America: The Great Republics_, author Walter Signorelli chronicles and compares these two greatest and enduring republics of history, explaining how they formed, grew, and prospered.

RETURN OF THE BARBARIANSby Jakub J. Grygiel

From the Roman Empire and its barbarian challenge on the Danube and Rhine, Russia and the steppes to the nineteenth-century Comanches, Jakub J.

THE BIBLE AND EARLY TRINITARIAN THEOLOGY by Christopher A. Beeley and Mark E. Weedman The past thirty years have seen an unprecedented level of interest in early Christian biblical interpretation, from major scholarly initiatives to more popular resources aimed at pastors and general readers. The fields of Biblical Studies and Patristics/Early Christian Studies each arrived at the study of early Christian biblical interpretation largely from their own standpoints, and they tend to operate in relative isolation from one another. This books aims to bring the two fields into closer conversation, in order to suggest new avenues into the study of the deeply biblical dimension of patristic theology as well as the contribution that patristic exegesis can make to contemporary views of how best to interpret the Bible.
