RANDOM ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANICCA ROUND UP POST
filled another page of note paper. i did NOT read 21 pages of APE, but the illustrations were fun.
APELLES-greek painter he is were i could use some help as the 1891 people apparently ALL KNEW LATIN. he is famous for saying Ne supra crepidam sutor judicaret(vet).
can anybody translate?
APICIUS 3 of them all roman COOKS! 2nd one wrote a famous cook book. BAMUS!
APIS-egyptian bull god. not 'antique', but well researched.
APOLINARIS SIDONIUS 400ish a.d. poet/court flatterer. 1st for roman, then for goths-gotta survive eh? was also a cleric, married with 3 kids. amazing the stuff recorded and known from that long ago.
now gotta look up apollo belvidere and the farnese bull.
and i also got the thought when looking at caesar and cicero next to each other on the page. if you pronounce it kikero, why no kaesar? and is that how they got kaiser?
