As I went by, I noticed that the green colour had started coming off,
in the places, where it had hit marketing stalls and people! Under
the green colour, I very clearly saw RED!!!! At the same time, I
noticed that one of the two men, the driver, had just received a big

<Your input is more than welcomed here especially since I posted the Lex
Moravia here for the input of all citizens and not just Plebeian citizens.
A Plebeian citizen has made similar comments on the CPT list.>


SCEPTIVS: Illustrious colleague, I thought a Patrician couldn't be involved in the writting of laws for Plebeian citizens. I'm glad you have changed your mind about it. :-)
<In Ancient Rome, the Gods were part of everyone's daily lives and so even if
the auspices were not officially asked for, I am sure that everyone was
paying attention to whether there were bad omens or not. Here it is quite
different and I find that many magistrates totally ignore our Gods and don't
even check the calendar when calling for a vote or a contio. Sometimes it is
even announced that the auspices are good when the magistate has not taken
them and have not requested that the Collegium Augurum do so on their
behalf. This is my religion and I don't find 'play acting' with our Gods
humourous. I respect everyone's religious beliefs and I admit that I expect
the same courtesy in return. I doubt that our devout Catholic citizens would
laugh if on Good Friday, I announced that I changed bread into the Body of
Christ and that we would have a wild party afterwards that is approved by
Jesus.>

SCEPTIVS: If you wish to check in http://www.novaroma.org/calendar/october.html, you would find I have made an appropiate calling to vote as the days are dies comitiales and so then I have followed *strictily* all the religious procedures. I don't ignore Gods, if you ment that, and I have not state "auspices are good, lets go" or better said "cum bona alite".

It is also *My* religion and I don't play humourously like a role player. I take Gods seriously, and I also respect the private contract all citizens have to their Gods as I expect them to respect my private contract with them. Being no rule about asking auspices for calling the CPT, I feel I have been too pious and respectfull to our Gods but no lack of accuracy to our Ancients.

Then I ask humbly to our Augur if it would be needed and therefore I'll withdraw my law until auspices are taken and favourable. If not, Contio will follow intact and voting procedures shall start on Monday 27th of October.

<I am willing to remove the 'mandatory' auspices part, so I am wondering if
instead I could include that when there is a call to vote it is mandatory
for the Plebeian magistrates to include a listing of the days which are (and
are not) appropriate for voting according to the Religio? This way, the Gods
are clearly remembered without the CPT going against the mos maiorum.>


SCEPTIVS: I don't mind that part of including the list of comitialis dies needed to make all known if we can act in our Res Publica, although any magistrate who cares can find them in the link I have given up this paragraph. I think it is really very good idea, Moravia Aventina. What I mind is, as Umbrius Ursus has said, is the problem of having a patrician taking auspices for us. I think (Just an suggestion) you could include the idea of religious procedence of the Tribunes given by the plebeians; it means, when a Tribune is ellected, he is invested of Sacred powers, including the will of calling the Comitia, and therefore he is under the Gods protection. That was historical. :-)

<What does everyone think? Unlike my colleague Sceptius <blatant snotty
comment> when I ask for input I am willing to change my lex so that citizens
who are kind enough to read it in detail and comment, do not waste hours of
their time.>


SCEPTIVS: Dear Moravia Aventina, I had alter by adding or removing my law several times since I wrote my inicial draft. It has been always done when Latin sounded awful (many times) or some idea was wrong (as I discovered after thinking twice later on a discussion or looking the Constitutional Frame we have). It means I have to accept all changes without strong arguments? Not really. I have defended the way it is written and the purpose it has when a suggestion has been done and I don't believe (reasoning it) it is going to add a better thing. It doesn't mean this law can't be better improve. Lets people think about during the Contio.

Brueggeman's site is most excellent. It has a lot of interesting
information, and several thought-provoking theories about the layout
of the Roman Army. This is one of my favourites sites, and I can not

A. Apollonius Cordus to all citizens and peregrines,
greetings.

I've been finding recently that I only receive
main-list messages in my e-mail inbox a day or even
two days later than they appear on the yahoogroups
website; I'm not having this delay in other yahoo
lists.

Is anyone else having the same trouble?

At the time of the founding of the Comitia Plebis Tributa the
Patricians had a monopoly on the priesthoods which is the historical
reason that the Comitia Plebis Tributa did not require an augury.
However at the time of the "re-founding" of the Comitia Plebis Tributa
there are Plebian priests and priestess, thus the reason for the no
requirement for auspices to be taken was removed at the founding of NR.

That is a very good point, Nova Roma does need at least one more
Augur, preferably Plebian, if not two or three more Augurs. It was
not unknown in the old Republic for suddenly someone to exclaim they
heard thunder or observed another ill omen in order to block a piece
of legislation they didn't like no matter what Comitia was being
convened. However the convening magistrate did have the option to
ignore ill auspices. Should something bad happen later then well...

Vale,

Salve Maarten,

http://www.moyak.com/researcher/resume/papers/roman_women.html

Primarily, it was only Patrician women who were restricted in their careers and activities. This was due mainly to the precept of noble families using marriage as a political tool, therefore the actions of Patrician women were fairly restricted.

Plebian women however, where somewhat more liberated. From what I understand they were free to own businesses, practice in trades/crafts (although I'm not sure if these were limited due to their sex) and were for the most part as free as women were in the ancient world.

Keep in mind I'm not too sure on this, should anyone find any faults with this by all mean correct me.

It is also important to note that women, regardless of standing as either Patrician or Plebian, are treated equally by their male counterparts in Nova Roma.

Vale.

Salve Illustrus Tiberius Galerius Paulinus!

I am going to put forward a proposal for the future of the Eagle
during the November meeting of the Senate. It is hard to say when
such a meeting will be called to order, among other things I need the
auspices to be taken. Rest assured that I will try to call the
meeting as soon as possible.
