Societas Via Romana - Discussion Archives

Salve Mari,
interesting: I always thought this was "the roman society and way". A comma would be missing, but the name can make perfect grammatical sense this way. It never occurred to me that it was meant to mean something else.

Because of organization problems the festival wasn't as big as promised, but it was still interesting, and I was positively impressed with Bulgaria.

Salve Tiberi Draco,
I also read "Guns, Germs and Steel" and found it quite enlightening.
I have bought "Collapse" already, but had no time to read it yet. I'm sure ti will be worthwhile, though.

Salve Mari,
I agree with every word you write.
And thanks for making the two threads "sticky".

Salve Ursus,
my mother found a book about roman economy which just came out in Italy. As soon as I reach her in Torino (in a few days) I'll let you know more about it, in case you can read Italian.

I got a villa on the via Sacra on the Palatine, but it's still very empty.

Salve Mari,
huge independent film festival over here in Budapest. It lasts all megalesia and a few days.
I'm having fun.

Salvete,
I just bought (actually I'll get it tomorrow) a nice signet ring. It's from provincia Achaia, with Mars or Minerva on it.
