Document Summary
Only map to know: the one in the syllabus (for tests) His name is sextus (latin prinoman) does what he wants. Rapes a woman named lucretia: his dad and him are pretty evil (no one really likes his dad, she can"t stand the shame of being raped so she kills herself, that"s the last straw! New period: the republic (called it that because it"s the modern term and because it comes from the latin phrase res publica ) Originally comes to mean the state but then refers to the system of electing the consuls instead of kings. New democratic system (only the ppl on the top have a say in things) Each year, the state is run by 2 consuls (they do the same as the old kings but with religion) Temple of iuppiter optmus maximus (iom) optimus = best, maximus = biggest. Deticated to juno (his wife) and minerva (equivalent to athena)
