Salve Marinus,

A wise precaution to add the rider that your tongue was firmly in
your cheek, lest you log on in a couple of days to find a rumour
floating around that you have evidence the Boni are all togate aliens
from Piso who want to marry everyone.

Of course the day after that the rumour would be that you are an
alien who wants to marry Drusus while wearing a toga made in Piso....

Salve,

For the record, even though I'm not yet a priest.. if anyone needs
either a marriage or funeral officiated, I am ordained to do so. My
ordination is valid (and recognized, but it might take a bit of
arguing in some jurisdictions) in all fifty states of the U.S., and
some parts of Canada.

brought to the "other side" where the Boni live free and easy?

Salvete!

Lacus Magni, Regionis Orientalis will be hosting a dinner for any
and all citizens of Nova Roma who happen to be in Cincinnati, OH.
We will be holding the dinner at Buca di Beppo (address below), a
family-style Italian restaurant. We had our dinner in April at the
Columbus location which was a lot of fun. This will be a great
opportunity to get to know Nova Roma in a new light and on a local
level. We have several new citizens that I hope to meet there!

Please let me know if you plan to come so that I can adjust the
reservation as needed.

Place: Buca di Beppo Cincinnati - Rookwood Commons
2635 Edmondson Road
Norwood OH 45209
513.396.7673
www.bucadibeppo.com

Time: 2pm

Date: August 28, 2004

Attire: casual, no Roman attire necessary :)

RSVP: You can email me at: whiterose13.geo AT yahoo DOT com or
wr AT whiterosesgarden DOT com


If I have a chance, I will also be mailing out official invitations
again for those who are not subscribed to the lists.

Of course you can. I brought my cats. Oh, yeah, I was recently
made a member of the Boni too. My evilness has many reaches Cato.

I haven't seen any evil plots yet (darn), and as a the Mistress of
Evil (sorry, BA reference), I know evil when I see it. Of course
this Marinus/Drusus marriage would probably qualify but I don't
think it's made the Boni list yet (then again I haven't checked in a

history. But we are still a community of people. To be quite honest
if all it ever was was history this and history that without any sort
of humanity or community it would get rather stagnant. Yes we love
Rome and we strive to be Romans. Certainly we can invest time in
research and gab about it. I spend alot of time researching, and even
more time it seems talking about it with other people.
But it one thing to just talk about Roman, and another to be it I
think. They can go hand in hand, but I think it would be a shame to
completely throw out one.
As for the humor. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Perhaps
someone would like to show evidence that Romans had no sense of humor
what so ever, and did not jokes or tease each other. Or argue for
that matter? If someone shows such evidence I will happily keep my
mouth shut, return solely to my studies and once again virtually
ignore the ML other then the brief visit. I am interested in talking
to Romans, not to more text books.

As for driving people off. I think it has more to do with alot of the
slander, and pettiness some people show, not to mention
vindictiveness. Who would want to hang around for that. Most of us
can get that with the people we live with, or at very least within
our own families.

There are two problems with that. The first is if all the Priests are
ordained by another church it will make it harder to gain our own
recognition. The second is the ULC has a very bad reputation with the
IRS and any association with them could cause problems with gaining
IRS tax exempt status.

It might have been a good plan if the ULC hadn't screwed up in the

avoid paying properity and Income taxes. Ever since then they have
raised red flags with the IRS.

Salve,

If one wishes to gain an ordination other than through the ULS you can go
with the Spiritual Humanists or Universal Ministries who provide ordination
via the internet as well. their web sites are
http://www.spiritualhumanism.org/ and http://universalministries.com/ .
They all accept you no matter what your faith is for ordination.

Pukulpa Tjunguringkunytja - by Diana James


We walk together on sacred ground.
Black feet, white feet, treading softly on the land.
Mother Kuniya moves beneath our feet,
the Tjukurpa/Creation Law breathes life
into the sacred landscape of Uluru.

White guides and Anangu guides, working together. We stand firm in
the laws of the two cultures, keeping the cultural and natural heritage
strong.
Our feet on sacred ground our hands reach up to hold the new circle of life;
The campfire, the waterhole, where people of all cultures can meet and
share.

Argent, a natural panther's head sable, in chief three

It might have been a good plan if the ULC hadn't screwed up in the
1970s and 80s by advertising that people could use that ordaniation to
avoid paying properity and Income taxes. Ever since then they have
raised red flags with the IRS.

Well, this sounds like fun. Can I come, too? I wanna see the comet, better yet, I wanna see Marinus and Drusus get married ( that should be one heck of an affair ) and I don't look too bad in a toga if I do say so myself, and I am saying so myself. I got horses and cats I can bring along and a swell dinosaur collection. I'll even bring Godzilla. And I promise to keep them off the controls. Well, I don't know about Godzilla. Really can't make any promises with him. Very stubborn fellow.

this Marinus/Drusus marriage would probably qualify but I don't

Subject: Re: And yet more Boni
Salve

I believe the movie was "Mutant nasty horrible evil Boni with long
digits (Part 57.5)" as directed by MaCa (Maior and Cato) Productions
Inc. and Micronation.

REVIEW:
Generally rated as unusitable for those of a nervous disposition or
those suffering from the terminal stages of paranoia frenzy. It tells
a less than believable tale of an evil plot spanning the millenia to
gain control of the galaxy, or if that isn;t possible the telephone
box outside of Liverpool Street Railway Station, London UK. Set to
the music of "Yellow Submarine" it comprises some violent camera work
(ala Balir Witch style) which combined with the nauseating plot will
produce vomiting in most people after the 103rd compulsory showing.

Anything else ya need to know :)? Oh, it one a "Turgid" - the other

AURELIANUS: Nova Roma is not "...an archaeological and historical
organization about the Ancient Rome..." and the rest of this quote
didn't make very much sense to me. Tribune, I suggest you read the
Constitution of Nova Roma and the Declaration of Roman Paganism to
get a better clue as to what Nova Roma was founded for and about.

or archaeology.

AURELIANUS: What is "too European?" I have never noted that the
Europeans are that bound up together in much beyond an economic
union. Most Americans are more than willing to contribute to the
preservation of historic sites in Europe that are related to Rome.
Ultimately, there will likely be some regional meeting places in both
North America and Europe but in the chances are that the 108 acres
for the worldwide administration of Nova Roma will be in North
America. How much would 108 acres of land (near major roads and
cities with airports that also has reasonably affordable building
costs) cost near Rome, Milan, Brussels, London, York, Brussels, or
Paris?

>Only the original places could give us the real roman emotions and
>restore the ancient virtutes.

AURELIANUS; That is just plain horse excrement. Maybe a current day
person living in Rome can have "...real roman emotions..." and you do
not need to be standing on the Via Appia to "... restore the ancient
virtues." If you cannot carry that with you, then being next to the
Circus Maximus is not going to do it for you. Your remarks are pure
hyperbole.

AURELIANUS: No one builds in deserts if it can be avoided. The
current situation in Lepcis Magnus is caused by the loss of
irrigation, agriculture, and climatic changes. It did not look that
way in Septimus Severus' day. Canada does have some possibilities as
does Brazil. Australia is even less central than Thule. Also, you
should really look into the political and religious stability and
tolerance of the areas you are mentioning. At present, Hellenic
pagan groups are under vicious attack and intoleration by the
Orthodox Church in Greece; where paganism has no official standing
and religious toleration is not part of their constitutional
documents.

Now I am lucky to live in a city where we have a full replica of

Have you seen the original Parthenon? Did it got you the same
emotions of the replica? WOuld do you prefer live and work close to
real greek building?

AURELIANUS: Actually, Caesare, you need to see the Nashville
Parthenon with the40' tall statue of Athene Parthenos in Her golden
and painted glory to get the full effect of just how much I feel
there. Or the giant statue of Vulcan sitting atop a hill in
Birmingham, Alabama. Could a modern day Hellene or Roman worship in
the ancient ruins in Rome or Athens? Could a fire be lit to Vesta in
the remnants of Her temple without a dozen alarms going off? I know
that I can worship Dii Immortales in the middle of my city without
having to worry about an Orthodox Metropolitan screaming at me on a
bull horn that I will burn in the Fiery Places of Hell.

These services were only provided by the Flamen Dialis for the
confarretio. Marriage in the Republic was usually more of a civil
union that a religious one. Funerals were much the same. Now there
were some religious oriented rites of passage such as the Liberalia
on 15 Kalends Aprilis for young men. Or the Parentalia when families
honored the sacred dead or manes.

non-citizens in need.

Sounds a little too revisionist to me, Athanasios. I would prefer to
keep the Religio in its proper place and not go branching off into
more modern ideas about what the priesthoods should be about rather
than what they are by tradition.

I DON'T believe priests of Nova Roma should "preach or evangelize"
but I do believe that offering simple rites of passage would offer
long term benefits. In Roma Antiqua funerals were handled by the
family; not everyone is ready for something like that. In Roma
Antiqua marriage was viewed much differently then it is today, I

The IRS is the big hurdle, and they have fought several court battles
against people using ULC ordanitions in tax scams. The Church used to
charge money for ordaining you, and advertise that their ordainations
would allow you to avoid income and properity taxes.

The ULC raises red flags at the IRS when it comes time to file for tax
exempt status.

Subject: Decretum on the Nova Roma Calendar
Salvete,
The Collegium Pontificum, convened by Pontifices Gaius Modius Athanasius and
L. Sicinius Drusus has enacted the following Decretum effective immediately:

Decretum on Nova Roman Calendar

The Decretum passed on Ante Deium VIII Kalendas Aprilis 2754 (25 March 2001)
is hereby amended.

The Official Calendar of Nova Roma will be the Gregorian Calendar with the
following modifications:
I) Years will be reckoned from the founding of Rome rather than the common
era.
II) The addition of intercalary days will be determined by the Gregorian
formula using the common era as a reference, but will be inserted between Ante
Deium VI Kalenas Martis (24 February) and Ante Deium V Kalendas Martis (25
February).

The month names of the Julian calendar as revised by Augustus and the
Gregorian calendar will be the official names in Nova Roma.

To fulfill the Vow of adding an additional Dies Nefastus Pridie Kalendas
Ianuarii (31 December) is hereby designated a Dies Nefastus on the Calendar of
Nova Roma as a piacular offering to the Gods of Roma. Each year this day will
be reserved for the making of piacular offerings for any offenses to the Gods
that may have occurred during the year.

Due to the failure of Nova Roma's Collegium Pontificum to act in a timely
manner this day was not observed in 2754, 2755, and 2756. (2001, 2002, 2003).
To correct this three additional days are hereby declared Nefastus for this
year only. Ante Deium V Kalendas Ianuarii, Ante Deium IV Kalendas Ianuarii, and
Ante Deium III Kalendas Ianuarii (28 December, 29 December, 30 December)
will be Dies Nefastus for the year 2757 (2004). As a Piacular Offering for
failing to celebrate these days at the proper time one additional day is hereby
designated Nefastus in 2757. That day shall be Ante Deium VI Kalendas Ianuarii
(27 December).

The Following format will be used for all official dates in Nova Roma:
I) The Date will be stated in Roman reckoning using the Ante Deium system
followed by the year in AUC Format.
II) This will be followed by a restating of the date in modern format inside
of parentheses.

As an example: Ante Diem VIII Kalendas Augusti, 2757 (25 July 2004)

Of course now we come to the unwarranted attack. What trivial

So about 90% of the Assidui of Nova Roma are not Boni, and I consider
that a Good Thing.

And just what modernists would you be refering to? If you think to include
me in that number, I'll save you some typing. I'm no more a modernist than
you are. I do have a different focus of interest in Nova Roma than the
one you have. I also think that the Boni, at least the self-admitted Boni
like QFM and LSD and LCSF and more recently you, are a bunch of narrowly
focused bullies bent on driving people who disagree with your view of
what the Republic ought to be away from Nova Roma. I have been quite
disappointed with the shift toward confrontational positions you've evinced
since you chose to join the Boni, and I don't think you've served the
Republic or yourself well.

Whatever the Boni claim to stand for, I'll tell you what they're not. The
Boni are *not* interested in adherence to the mos maiorum. You all have
a skewed notion of Romanitas that you're extracted from somewhere, and you
reinforce it in each other. You don't study, and you indicate no interest
at all in scholarly exchanges of information. When you cite a source, you
do so only as a form of Dominance behavior, claiming expertise you don't
really have to make a poorly constructed argument you couldn't otherwise
make. (QFM is the occassional exception, but he is exposed by true
scholars.)

> Many of us have come out and said,

*shrug*

Take all the pride you want in it. As far as I'm concerned you're all
still displaying the same behaviors that street gangs display. You
show little subtlety and less tact, and if you don't get things the
way you want you set out to make things miserable for everyone else.

Maior: why is it best kept private? Do you have something to hide.
do you think the Republic is trivial, as you preferred a
Dictator, do you think laws are unecessary? Why are you a Tribune
Plebis? Frankly since you don't seem at all devoted to the Republic,
laws, and government of Roma Antiqua, I think you are the modernist

If your name is on this list it is because you told me you wanted an SPQR ring. Five people have sent in a payment the rest of you need to do so NOW.

Mike Carroll has spent time and MONEY to design this ring for US and my reputation is on the line in the fact that I can only send him 5 paid orders instead of 22.

Is this one more example of the follow through or the lack thereof of NOVA ROMANS??????

I'd take it as a favor if you, and all others, would refrain from
making such suggestions. In this matter I feel sure that the
applicants who were considered best qualified were selected.

Subject: The Boni-Aurelianus responds to Fabiana and Athanasios.
F. Galerius Aurelianus M. Arminia Maior Fabiana. Salve.

O.K., I reject your statements in this message. The Boni as a
private organization in Nova Roma have a right to keep their list
private and you insult their rights and privileges by your suggestion.

To G. Modius Athanasios--The cohors of Censor Quintilianus is his
personal staff guaranteed by the Constitution and Leges of Nova
Roma. His colleague is not entitled to have access simply because he
is also a Censor. Sulla Felix can organize his own censorial cohors
and Quintilianus will not have any right to access it either. The
Senate list is also closed for good reason but the Tribunes have a
right to know about their deliberations to protect the Plebs just as
the Flamen Cerealis has a historic precedent to have the a copy of
the Senate records stored in the Temple of Ceres.

To all parties interested in this thread: There are certain lists
that are closed to the populi because the deliberations of those
lists are protected by privilege, right, and tradition. Whether
computer lists or the actual deliberations of the Senate or Collegium
Pontificum.

Before making proposals that would conflict with the Constitution,
Leges, and Edicta of Nova Roma, please read up on it first so as to
prevent citizens from developing an opinion about the poster that is
very negative.

Valete.

Master Publius Albucius;

My most sincere thanks for your very kind words regarding "Eagle." This
is the first year that "Eagle" has been "on-line" (since last January),
and before that it was a subscription to a hard copy. The Senate has
now closed all hard-copy subscriptions, and so only the on-lne version
of the "Eagle" is currently available.

The "Eagle" is an NR Newsletter and anyone can post to it, if you have
somethig that you wish to say, an article to share, or a poem perhaps.

Again you have my thanks for your very kind remarks, and I hope that you
will enjoy the "Eagle" for the rest of the year.

There are two problems with that. The first is if all the Priests are
ordained by another church it will make it harder to gain our own
recognition. The second is the ULC has a very bad reputation with the
IRS and any association with them could cause problems with gaining
IRS tax exempt status.

Aurelianus, I know very well the Costitution as Tribune, maybe
better than you. However the Costitution was written many years ago
and Nr is changed during this long time.
And the Costitution doesn't say ever what NR is or is becoming. The
Costitution doesn't say us that NR should be involved in live and
real archeological project but now NR is engaged in the Magna Mater
Project, the most important job we have and a project created by no
priests or members of the religious part of this organization.

What I mean is that NR is not ONLY a religious organization, it's
more and more and we all must to understand it. When we'll
unserstand all our aspects, maybe this little club of web-surfers
will become a great world organization for Ancient Rome.

Cives, yes, I agree but NR is not only religious rites and decreta
about blasphemy.
NR is history, culture and archeology too. A very large group of
people here is interesting to this fields and is working seriously
about their growth because we're seeing several good solutions for
our organization.

You are creating another question... what is "roman culture" for you?
Maybe "roman culture" is the pratictionism of the Religio Romana?
And why the number of messages about the Religio here in this list
are so few? Maybe we all are not following the Costitution and teh
roman culture? Maybe we're wrong talk about other topical
discussions or off-topics like the marriage between Marinus and
Drusus?

108 acres of land in the desert without the basilar services are not

As I said in a past message, roman emotions and virtutes don't

Yes, NR is a religious organization too ... but not only. It's this
and other 10 adjective. It depends by your PERSONAL views, by how
you live NR, by what you are doing.
With all the respect for the Gods and the Collegium, I don't see
Nova Roma only like a religious organization because the majority of
the citizens SEEMS to be not interesting to the Religio. The
Collegium and you claimed that 10% (in any way the majority) of the
population is not pratictioner. We could suppose that another 20% of
people are interesting but not pratictioning because in NR there
isn't a good educational program about the Religio.
How a group could define itself a religious organization if only the
30% of the members is very interesting to this topic?

Maybe we have a so low number because the people is interesting in
other fields too, so NR is not ONLY a religious organization. ;-)

> Archeology

Why? Why you're so negative?
The Magna Mater Project is our first live serious archeological
project and we're working with the higher archeological roman
academical istitution of the world, the University La Sapienza. And
we're collaborating with local groups and local public Istitutions
raising credits, good image and money.
Why we couldn't organiza other projects in the same way?
Why we couldn't became an international organization supporting
cultural projects?
Why we couldn't compete with archeological organizations liek we're
doing now?

Our goal is not "funding archeological work", our goal is protect
the Roman patrimony. This means that we're not forced to find new
archeological area, but we could support existing projects, give
assistance and services, give money ...
IMHO this is most important that an easy and joking mailing list...

No, you're wrong. Archeological sites are out of Europe too...

Hmm this last sentence. How curious. You are so opposed to any sort
of americanocentrism, but you do not see a problem with euro-
censtrism. You could have not had to read so much or make such
lengthy replis if you had just admitted to the all along. Funny how
American-centrism can be so dispisable to you, when you are so
capable of doing the same thing and think there is absolutely nothing
wrong with it. As you have been so fond of saying, we are all equal
and eurocentrism should be all the same as despisable to you. what an
interesting revelation. Well as a voting citizen I think my mind is
made up :)

Could someone explain to me what the purpose is of the Magna Mater Project?
What does the money from Nova Roma go for, and what is the return on that
investment?
Why is the Magna Mater Project so important?

Will Nova Roma EVER be allowed to hold ritual there to Magna Mater? Wouldn't
that be a site to see... We could have the international media there and it
would be a feather in Nova Roma's cap.

Since you are part of the Magna Mater Project perhaps you should arrange it
with the Roman cival authorities in Italy to allow Nova Roma to host a ritual
at the site of the temple. Lets say in the spring of 2006 (lots of money
trying to get so many citizens there, we need time to plan) we could hold an
International event in Rome with LOTS of workshops on Roman Culture, and
Religion...and we could fill the event with rituals to the Gods with a ritual to Magna
Mater at the site of the temple itself.

Project, the most important job we have and a project created by no
priests or members of the religious part of this organization.

What I mean is that NR is not ONLY a religious organization, it's
more and more and we all must to understand it. When we'll
unserstand all our aspects, maybe this little club of web-surfers
will become a great world organization for Ancient Rome.

You are right. Why keeping the, only at times majestic, renmants of the
acqueducts that sign the landscapes of half Europe? Why leaving those dangerous
columns ofthe survived temples standing, columns that falling might cause
injuries and victims? Why preserving the mosaics, antiquate things? And even
the frescos of Pompei, who cares! We have much better examples of that kind of
art, less ancient, but much better preserved.

Let's raze it all! Let's create some more precious, anonimous, god(s) forsaken
desert to build upon ratehr than having some crumbling, dangerous, ruins! The
conquistadores, those enlightened people known for their superior intelligence
that made them move past the silly notion of preserving at least something of
what they had conquered to turn everything into neat bars of gold and silver,
would be proud of you, Modia.

Gaius Modius Athanasius Fr. Apulo Caeser salutem dicit

Organizations can have multi-purposes; Nova Roma surely does. :)

Let me re-phrase myself: The primary purpose of Nova Roma is the
reconstruction of the Religio Romana and maintaining the Pax Deorum.

There, this allows for other interests, but they become the secondary purpose.

The primary purpose of Roman Catholicism is salvation. However, it is also a
secular state and a wealth of culture. So when you go on and on about Nova
Roma being MORE than about the Religio I wonder what you are getting at.

Galerius Aurelianus, I am surprised at this level of hyperbole.
Orthodox Metropolitans to do not "scream...on a bullhorn". The
Orthodox Faith is the State Religion of the Hellenic Republic of
Greece, and as such is highly intolerant of public defamation of, or
blasphemy in regards to, the Faith. Yet paganism is not illegal in
Greece. Just very poorly regarded, as a throwback to a time before
the Light of the Faith was known, they would say.

It is curious that a Greek pagan can indeed publicly worship the Di
Immortales (even if under the wrathful eye of the Orthodox), yet in
Nova Roma a citizen cannot publicly worship in any other way but
paganism (the religio Romana) without the fear of being smacked down
by a blasphemy charge. But you decry the cruelties of
Orthodox "oppression" and turn a blind eye to the other. Do you not
see an irony here?

II. Hereby I appoint Gallus Minucius Tiberius Iovinus as the
representative for Provincia Thule in the Collegium Interprovinciale
for the year 2757 to 2758.

III. This edictum becomes effective immediately.

Given 5th of August, in the year of the Consulship of Gnaeus Salix
Astur and Gnaeus Equitius Marinus, 2757 AUC.

PACTVM DE CONVENTO NOVAE ROMAE IN EVROPA

Introduction

The Conventus Novae Romae directly follows the Nova Roma Rally which
was born in 2755 A.V.C.
The Conventus is a yearly event taking place between July and August.
Its aim is to offer all the Cives of Nova Roma the opportunity to
meet in a European locality to discuss, stay together and strengthen
the sense of unity within the Res Publica.

I. Venue of the Conventus Novae Romae

The Venue of the Conventus, chosen by the Collegium Interprovinciale
upon candidacy, has to be a locality in Europe. Only those Provinciae
whose governors undersigned this convention can host the Conventus
Novae Romae.

II. Candidacies

Every year each governor can propose one locality only within his
Provincia as a candidate to host the Conventus Novae Romae.
Such candidacy has to be submitted to the Collegium Interprovinciale
two years in advance, between January 1st and April 30th.
The candidacy shall include:
- the name of the locality;
- a map of Europe and a national one indicating the exact position of
the locality;
- the reasons for choosing such locality and a description of the
locality itself;
- the kind of links between the running locality and the rest of Europe;
- a description of what the Provincia can offer for the organization
and the success of the Conventus;
- any element deemed useful for the decision of the Collegium Interprovinciale.

III. Collegium Interprovinciale

A commettee named Collegium Interprovinciale has the task of electing
the localities which shall host the Conventi Novae Romae.
The Collegium Interprovinciale is composed of a representative of
each Provincia which undersign this convention. Each representative
is appointed by the governor of his Provincia and has to be at least
18 years old.
Governors can not be members of the Collegium, therefore should a
member become governor he shall be replaced.
Each member continues in office for two years, and every year, on 1st
January, a part of the Collegium is renewed:
- in even years the representatives of Britannia, Germania, Italia
and Pannonia are renewed, should such Provinciae undersign the
convention;
- in odd years the representatives of Gallia, Hibernia, Hispania,
Thule and Venedia shall be renewed, should such Provinciae undersign
the convention.
Governors can reappoint the representatives of their Provinciae to the post.

Every year one of the two Aediles Curules shall be the President of
the Collegium. They shall choose upon mutual agreement the one
holding such position.

IV. Choice of the venue of the Conventus

Among all of the running localities the Collegium Interprovinciale
shall elect the venue of the Conventus. The elected locality will be
the one hosting the Conventus Novae Romae during the second year
after the voting.

While choosing the venue of the Conventus the Collegium shall
consider the following:
- adequacy of the resources offered by the Provincia for the
organization of the Conventus;
- links of the locality with the other Provinciae;
- distance from the last time the Provincia hosted the Conventus.

The voting, presided over by the President of the Collegium, takes
place between September 1st and September 15th of each year. The
locality which gets more votes shall be the winner. The result shall
be publicly announced by the President between September 16th and
30th. Until that date not even the Collegium Interprovinciale shall
know the result of the voting. Only after the announce of the result,
as a guaranty of non-manipulation, the President shall communicate
the Collegium the vote of each member.
Should the result having been manipulated it will be the Collegium's
task to publicly rectify what was announced by the President, or it
will be the President's task to rectify what he previously declared.

V. Organization of the Conventus Novae Romae

The Conventus Novae Romae shall take place during the first half of
August, and shall last no less than three days and no more than five,
not including arrivals and departures.
The organization of the Conventus and the assistance to the Cives who
want to participate is fully up to the host Provincia.
Not after January 1st of the year the Conventus shall take place in
the Provincia shall provide with a web site including:
- the program, final if possible, of the Conventus (minor
modifications can be made after);
- all relevant information on the accomodation of the participants;
- information on national and international transportations to reach
the venue of the Conventus;
- any further information deemed necessary.

Should it be deemed necessary to ask for inscription to the
Conventus, the date to start gathering inscriptions is January 1st.
The deadline to send inscriptions to the Conventus is established by
the host Provincia.
It is strongly recommended to include in the program of every
Conventus Novae Romae the following points:
- official opening of the Conventus with speech of the governor of
the host Provincia, said by the governor himself or by a deputy;
- Roman dinner:
- At least half a day of re-enactment where the participants may take
part to the various activities wearing Roman clothes.

The program of the Conventus can be enriched by lectures, meetings,
tours of museums, expositions, archaeological areas, shows, classes,
games and any other pertinent activity.

It is strongly suggested to assign one or two Cives the task to
assist the participants from other Provinciae in finding flights and
trains to reach the Conventus.

It is also recommended to include in the program some free time which
the Cives may use as they whish, to have some relax or to organize
small internal meetings.

At the end of each Conventus the host Provincia shall issue each
participating Civis a participation certificate.

In organizing the Conventus Novae Romae the host Provincia may
consider to seek the Aediles Curules' collaboration.

VI. Adherence to the Pactum de Convento Novae Romae

The governors of the European Provinciae who want to adhere to this
convention may do it by issueing an Edictum to which they shall
attach the text of the convention (Pactum de Convento Novae Romae).
It is recommended the text of this convention to be translated into
the languages of the Provinciae which undersign it.

VII. Validity of the Pactum de Convento Novae Romae

This convention is valid only if it is undersigned by at least three governors.

Temporary provisions

A. In order to underline the connection with the Nova Roma Rally, the
numbering of the Conventus Novae Romae shall be consecutive.
Therefore, after the I Novae Romae Rally in Gallia and the II Novae
Romae Rally in Italia, the next one shall be the III Conventus Novae
Romae.

B. The III Conventus Novae Romae shall take place in Provincia
Hispania, in Segovia, from 6th to 8th August 2757 A.V.C.
Provincia Hispania is not required to follow the rules set by this
convention while organizing the III Conventus Novae Romae in Segovia.

C. On 1st January 2005 it shall be renewed a part of the Collegium
Interprovinciale. Therefore such members shall stay in office for a
period which is shorter than two years, as set by this convention.
However they can be reappointed by their governors.

D. Until 30th August 2004 the Collegium Interprovinciale accepts
candidacies for the IV and for the V Conventus Novae Romae, for 2758
A.V.C. and 2759 A.V.C. respectively.
The governors who will submit the candidacies shall indicated for
which year they are intended.
The Collegium shall vote between Ocetober 1st and October 15th. The
President shall announce the results between October 16th and
Ocetober 30th.

Salve, Athanasios.

Do not expect the Flamen Cerealis to attend. The introduction of the Magna
Mater to Rome was an act by the Patricians to undercut the worship of the
Divine Ceres. Magna Mater's temple was built facing the Temple of Ceres and her
temple attendants were drawn exclusively from the Patrician class except for the
Galli. Unnatural creatures!
(Well that got the proper Plebeian response from the Flamen Cerealis out of
the way)

The preservation of the Magna Mater site is one of the tangible contributions
that Nova Roma has made to keeping another relic of the Republic from just
crumbling to dust. According to the documents I have read from the MM Project,
the base of the temple and some stonework has been preserved and stabilized
but because there is a historically important stand of trees on the temple site
further work on reconstructing the main body of the temple cannot be done at
present. Due to this, it is unlikely we will ever gain any use of the site in
the near future but perhaps our children or grandchildren will visit the
Eternal City one day and see Nova Roma's contribution to the preservation of the
material heritage of Old Rome. I believe that Nova Roma should continue its
efforts towards the MM Project because it is the correct ideological act to
perform even though Her's was a foreign, Patrician-backed cult.

Vale.

The Pontifex Maximus did not have the right to act in the manner in which he
did. The problem has been corrected and the new Lictors have been selected.
If you feel that the process taken was mishandled by the pontifices then I
suggest you contact a tribune and request that the decreta issued by the
Collegium, and promulgated by the Pontifex Maximus, be vetoed.

However, let me remind you that it was the Pontifices who upheld the
constitution. It is the Collegium Pontificum who appoints Lictors, and not the

The reference I made was drawn from two newspaper articles that were
published on two of the Hellenic Pagan sites linked to Nova Roma. Last year, Hellenic
pagans gathered to celebrate their rites at an ancient site near a current
Orthodox church. The Greek Christian got wind of it and gathered at the
deadline to demonstrate and hurl invectives at the Hellenes. A Metropolitan (bishop)
used a bullhorn to "preach" at the Hellenes and included statements that they
were going to, essentially, burn in Hell.

Salve.

The Constituion of Nova Roma states in Section III:

"III. Comitia

1. The /comitia curiata/ (Assembly of Curiae) shall be made up of
thirty /lictores curiatae/ (curia lictors), appointed to their
position by the /collegium pontificum/ (college of pontiffs). It
shall be called to order by the Pontifex Maximus, and the
collegium pontificum shall set the rules by which the comitia
curiata shall operate internally. It shall have the following
responsibilities:
1. To invest elected and appointed magistrates with /Imperium/
(which is necessary to employ /coercitio/ (the power to
compel obedience to his edicts), interpret and execute law,
and possess the honor of being preceded by lictors as a
symbol of office), without right of refusal individually or
as a body;
2. To witness the appointment of official priests and
priestesses of the Religio Romana, adoptions, and the
recording of wills.
3. To approve or reject the elevation of a plebeian family to
the Ordo Patricius;
4. To approve or reject an adoption that elevates a plebeian to
the Ordo Patricius or lowers a patrician to the Ordo Plebeius;
5. To approve or reject an application from a patrician who
wishes to renounce his status and become a member of the
plebeian order."

The Pontifex Maximus was simply in error when he said:

<>"A quick enquiry has been sent to the Censores regarding the
applicants Citizen standing. We have more applicants than needed,
so when the Censors reply /applicants will be appointed in the order in//
which they applied/." - M. Cassius Iulianus, Pontifex Maximus

He was corrected by a member of the Collegium, and then we took a vote.
Each Pontifex voted for 10 Lictors, and the 10 with the most votes were
selected. The Pontifex Maximus simply made a mistake, something we all
do from time to time. No nefarious plot here, I assure you.

There is a problem with the Magna Mater site caused by a contradiction
in the goals of the Italian Government. One of the greatest dangers to
historic sites is plant growth. At this very moment the roots of those
trees are underminning the Temple foundations, undoing the stabilizing
work, and creating new damage. Preserving the trees is incompatable
with the long term preservation of the Temple ruins.

Don't give up your day job to persue a career as a psychic, your

The Collegium discussed maintaining the Dignitas of the Comitia
Curatia by selecting candidates who would enhace it, and selecting
people who are likely to be there in the long term.

Handing out Lictor postions like they were unimportant trinkets was
tried two years ago, and the result was a need to replace a third of

What are the sources of this information? I would to know because
nobody of the local public istitutions said us (me and Curule Aedile
Perusianus and all the people involved) this problem.
I think that the last word must be of the Curule Aedile managing the
project, Iulius Perusianus making a qonderful job on our best
project.
Yes there is a problem with this trees because they are national
artistical and cultural patrimony. This is a little wood of the
XVIII cen. and it couldn't cutted. However everything in this area
of Rome, each stone is historical ;-)
By the way if you look the photos by Perusianus, you could observe
that this wood cover teh minority of the ruin and all the ancient
internal part of the building is quite clean.

Everyting is written in the temporary official website, everything

this list and I think Curule Aedile Perusianus would be very happy
to answer you.

> Why is the Magna Mater Project so important?

My personal opinion is that this project is very important for NR
because:

- it gives us credit and image at the most important public
istitutions in Rome
- it creates a close collaboration with the University La Sapienza
of Rome, the most important istitution about the Ancient Rome
- it creates a close network between University, local istitutions,
international academical organizations, experts, etc. In the center
of this network would stay Nova Roma
- it appoints NR as an important international cultural organization
- it creates one of the best web source about a detailed project
- it gives to NR the possibility to be involved in other live
projects
- it permits to NR to follow one of its goal as organization
- it preserve part of the roman patrimony
- it gives back an important religious ruin to the Religio

I think this list is enough long ;-)
Other points could be added by the staff of the project.

I don't know if we will hav the permission to organize religious
rituals there. By the way the collaboration with the University
permitted us to visit 3-4 times the temple thinking that this area
is restricted to the public from many time.

Yes, we could try. By the way a similar job was done the last 21th
April during the Birthday of Rome. A large groups of Nova Romans
received the permission to visit the restricted area of teh
Sanctuary, the house of August and the west palatine.

We're thinking to organize something in Rome during the next year.
we could take your suggestion, Athanasius, and try to visit again
the Temple for a more long time. I'll talk with Perusianus.

"trees and some of the groundwork associated with planting can damage
archaeological sites. Techniques used to break up the ground surface
to give young trees a more stable footing, such as mounding, screefing
and ploughing, can cause obvious harm and once the trees are
established, the growing action of their roots can disturb the fabric
of the archaeological site and in later life, windblow can cause
massive damage if the root plate is dislodged. More indirect damage
can be sustained by tree growth camouflaging archaeological remains
under the canopy. This can lead to inadvertent damage being caused
during normal woodland management operations."

Aurelianus, I apologize, and stand corrected. I must admit I'd like
to see a picture of a Metropolitan in full ecclesiastical drag
shouting into a bullhorn, if only for the visual effect. It's
so.....un-Orthodox-like :-)

Hadrianus, point taken. I'm not assuming any "plot". The reason
for the curiosity is that once again, the CP didn't bother to make
the correction public, so no-one knew what was going on until we
were presented with a list. I know, I know, the CP can do whatever
it wants whenever it wants and isn't "accountable" in any way etc.
etc. etc., but as a citizen interested in the outcome (OK, I admit
it, I applied and was [SURPRISE!] rejected), it might have been nice
to know what was happening, especially as the process was NOT what
it had been presented as to the citizens in public.

Arcanus Agricola, although what you wrote:

"Maybe there should be a means test for citizenship. If your [sic]
Christian I am happy for you, now go someplace else. Or at least
offer prayers to the Gods in public."

may be felt by a certain, oh.... 10% (just to pull a number out of a
hat) of the population of Nova Roma, it not only violates the
Constitution but decency and Concord.

First of all, a "means test" concerns wealth, not religious
affiliation. If you're going to discriminate, at least get your
discriminatory tools right. And I'd be happy to undergo a means
test. Trust me.

Second, there was no hint that anyone suggested that offerings to
the gods in public were being disparaged. The point was that
Aurelianus was upset that Hellenes couldn't worship in peace and
quiet in a declaredly Orthodox Christian nation; yet Christians can
be called up on blasphemy charges if they speak poorly of the gods
of Rome in a declaredly pagan State (Nova Roma). That's not going
to change (it's enshrined in the Constitution), but it's still a
little ironic. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Third, sorry. We (Christians) aren't going anywhere. There's more
to NR than the religio. Get used to it. I thought we'd gotten past
all that. The religio romana is the State Religion. As such, it is
due all honor and respect in public. It will never receive less
from me or any other right-thinking citizen (I hope). The actions
of certain practitioners, however, are certainly liable to
inspection, criticism, praise, etc., just as the actions of any
citizen are. Disagreeing with a practitioner is NOT standing
against the religio.

I agree with this text but it's only generical. It doesn't means
that all the wood damage the archeological sites. It need to check

I could be wrong, but there aren't documents affirming that the wood
of the Palatine is destroying the Temple of Magna Mater. But I could

Unless I forgot to change the note by the edict to which you refer, that edict is no longer valid per the Lex Arminia de Ratione Edictibus (http://www.novaroma.org/tabularium/leges/2002-11-24-v.html), Paragraphs II-V. Now, if you want to argue that he is not a magistrate, I can agree with you, but does that ultimately exclude him from giving his word to uphold, protect, defend, and, generally, maintain those things which are listed in the Lex Iunia de Iusiurando?

Okay, let me regurgitate a point here brought up by two pontifices already, probably more, and now, by a Fetialis. The Religio Romana /is/ the state, and the state /is/ the Religio Romana. One cannot exist without the other. This continued seperation of the State and the State Religion is nothing but destruction.

Obviously, we cannot legislate Romanitas. To an extent, we cannot even teach Romanitas. But People, we have got to get this built into ourselves soon if Nova Roma intends to survive. Or, more honestly, if we ever want to be anything close to Romans.

G. Equitius Cato quirites S.P.D.

salvete, omnes.

I wanted to throw out a quick apology if the tone of part of my post
was rather inhospitable. I fully accept that the CP has the right
to order itself both in alignment with the Constitutional powers it
is granted and as the protector of the religio. If I sounded rude,
it was not my intent: I am very aware that I have a not-so-friendly-
to-the-CP reputation, but it is not the case in this instance. I
merely wanted to get past any observations of, or quibblings about,
the CP's actual powers. A mistake was made. Unfortunate, but there
you have it.

One note, Caecilius Metellus: as the Constitution and the
Declaration *both* say, the religio is a prime, but *not* the only
reason for NR's existence. The State could not exist without the
religio, true; but the State could in fact be made up of people who
only perform the rituals/orthopraxy of the religio WITHOUT believing
a single word of it. It would be absolutely unnecessary, by the
religio's own pontiffs' explanations, to have a single
actual "believer" in the religio. After all, as many pontiffs have
explained (and the ancients themselves attest --- e.g. Cicero's
functioning as a non-believing Auger), what you *believe* doesn't
matter, only what you *do*.

Actually, I'd say it was more trivial than that. The PM made a statement
that was in error. Who doesn't?

About the only significant element of the error was not recognizing that
the fractious, quibbling populace obliges one to identify and correct ones
errors, lest they be mistaken for some Boni scheme (though in this case,
the irony is that the Boni scheme was to follow the Constitution, the
imps). Had the announcement of lictors included a brief comment to the
effect that the lictors had been chosen by the CP, in accordance with the
Constitution, we might have avoided this little backwater of the Tiber's
eddies (eeeeeeuuuuw).

Though... it's not often that anything can be done around here that isn't
sniped at, questioned ruthlessly and an inquisition called for. So perhaps
I'm being too... utopian.

The Gods are existentialists. Or maybe they reside in Missouri. Show me
(Show Them). Talk's cheap. Parading around claiming that one BELIEVES
is... nice. The understanding is that the State has a contract with the
Gods. As long as we carry our end out, we can reasonably expect that They
will. The Religio Romana Publica has to do with the community carrying out
its obligations. Good Romans do, contracts and laws and their proper and
complete enforcement is very Roman.

But while your sophisticated point is technically correct, I think we can
assure you--and Them--that Nova Roma will continue to have believers, as
well as practitioners (and probably some sincere... performers).

Subject: Re: Why is it that.....Cato to Aurelianus
A person old enough to see when an organization is in trouble, as I've seen it before. Second I am someone who has paid his taxes(dues), moreover given a good reason capable of giving far more. I joined Nova Roma in hopes that I joined an organization dedicated to public worship of the Roman Gods. So far in 75 days I've seen nothing but debate over non issues that don't really affect the way the Religio is portrayed in the real world. While many of the people here are humorous and extremely knowledgeable and will be large help when I write my primary paper so I can get my BS in History, what I really need is fellowship with others seeking to honor the Roman Gods. This is who I am, and more. It impresses me little that some of you have been involved with this organization for six years. What has been accomplished in those six years, is there a single temple to the Iupitor or Iuno or any of the others built or established by Nova Roma. What has Nova Roma done beyond reconstructing the rites of old (which I find extremely helpful and am eternally grateful form thank you) more is needed. I've seen the finances that were published how is that money being used to promote the Religio to others.

I personally do not think that Christians in this organization is a good thing...I may be wrong. But a Christians first dedication is to the Christian God, they as a part of their faith cannot believe in the other Gods. Christianity and any other monotheistic religion by there very nature cannot honor the Old Gods. Moreover they see them as nothing more then myth that is how they are addressed in Sunday service to children. I teach my child to honor the Lare and the Penate, and the Christian child is taught that these things do not exist or are demons. How does this help Nova Roma? Polytheism allows for all Cultures to have their Gods, Monotheism does not. If a Christian will proclaim that Iupitor(or any of the other 11) is the Equal to his God then I have no problem with the Christian, if he can't perhaps the Christian should find an organization that is not dedicated to the expansion of the Religio Romana.If he remains he will only hamper the endeavor.

Salve,

"And making wild charges is somehow going to lead to less
partisantism?"

By Ceres Mother, the only being I fear while in this tribunate, these
´charges´ are not wild. It is based on heavy evidence, due to
political distribution of the people choosen and my previous
endeavours for the official priesthoods (because priest, everyone is
its high priest of its own lararium.) and its results, (at the same
fashion, the replies I have received on my mailbox...)

They are not charges. They are the work of a Tribune on this
Republic. I do question. I was elected to do it, you like or not. I
will not be a poor tribune just by bowing myself to petty politics to
get titles given by the partisans.

As a heavy traditionalist, close follower of the Religio Romana and
the Mos Maiorum, I defend to bring back the Ancient Uses of Rome and
the Roman System, on the Politics and the Religio. So, I worry a lot
about the developments of the political patterns we are seeing on the
choosing of the priests of the state.

Just three quick questions to the Tribune:

1. Will you identify who the "rotten apples" are?
2. Will you define why you consider them rotten?
3. Are you advocating removing the vote from rotten apples?

However on that note that you have raised off of my joke *rolls
eyes*, I would like to note that in my past messages I am strictly
preservation of ancient artificats and sites, preservation though
doesn't mean use. I am sure once in a while the ability to use the
remains of ancient temple would wonderful and amazing, but for
consistent daily use.. no. It would not be pratical. New temples
would have to be built. It would be like living the remains of a
roman house. Sure it might be fun and wonderful and meaningful so
long as the sun is shining and the air is warm. But where would you
escape when the rain pours down and floods you out. Likewise with
temples, the weather is not going to always co-operate with you and
offer you good weather for every ritual to be done.

I do not doubt the validity of ruins, or the efforts to perserve
them, however we need substantial new things as well that would be
pratical day to day.

I actually thought my joke was quite direct, but I suppose that it
was easy to mis-interpret *shrugs*

Subject: Aurelianus to Tb. Arcanus Agricola
Have you read any of the documents that form the core of Nova Roma such as
the Constitution, the Leges, the Dicta or anything else, Agricola?

Two days ago, you made a public statement about the election process that
showed you had read none of the posts made by the Consul or the Rogatores about
how the Comitia Centuriata is run according to the Lex Fabia de Ratione
Comitiorum Centuriatorum. You then implied that you had asked questions about this
process and those questions had gone unanswered. Well, citizen, I do not
recall ever having seen you post any questions about the election process to the ML
and YOU CERTAINLY DID NOT post any to me even though I answered you privately.

Now you come out with this statement that implies that Christian Nova Romans
have no right to be here and, following that logic, anyone else who is not a
follower of the Religio Romana should not be a citizen either.

The basis of our organization is to restore the Religio and live life by the
public and private Roman Virtues. The Constitution and other documents of
Nova Roma plainly says that the Religio is the official religion of the State but
it doesn't say you can't be a Christian, Jew, or anything else. Those
documents also clearly explain that the Immortal Gods must be honored by magistrates
and citizens but it is not a requirement that you have to believe in them.

Agricola, it would be a very good thing if you would post a few questions
before you make a post that is not only incendiary but very close to insulting.

May the Gods grant you some prudence and restraint.

Subject: Re: Why is it that.....Cato to Aurelianus
Salve, Agricola.

Actually, this is somewhat our of context to what you wrote.. but you
touched on something I wanted to mention. Christians (or Jews) are
not obliged to not believe in any other gods. As someone has
mentioned before, the Mosaic commandment (the first), "Thou shalt not
put any other gods before me" actually implies belief in existance of
other gods, but that YHWH demands devotion to him, first and
foremost, as part of the covenant. In general, the Jews of Israel and
Judah are historically attested to have indeed believed in other
gods, but believed theirs to be the Creator, sustainer, and "God of
gods, Lord of lords". So, in other words, these other gods were
inferior and/or subordinate to the God of Israel.

It is the same with later Christian theology in the New Testament.
However, this isn't evident in most translations outside greek. The
apostle Paul makes a statement in reference to idol worship (in 2
Corinthians, I believe.. but I'm not sure) that sheds some light on
the matter. He said that the beings the greeks formerly worshipped
were "daimons". Not demons, though the word is derived from the
greek. In the greek language it's actually much more general, yet is
specific in context to the "mute ikons". Daimon means powerful, non-
corporeal entity. But he states quite firmly that these being are
inferior to the gods of Greece and Rome, and should not be afforded
the dignity of worship... to do so is to try to circumvent the Father
who gives all.

Though I am a practitioner of the religio roma, I was an evangelical
Christian convert for quite a few years, and a youth leader in my
church. After reading a parallel translation directly from the greek,
I confronted my pastor as to those particular passages, and he
acknowledged that Christian theology does not make any statement
contrary to the existance of those gods. Rather, the New Testament
portrays both those beings and even angels of the Christian god to be
unreliable and their worship is prohibited. Indeed, the early
Christians of Rome, when confiscating the temples former devoted to
the Immortals, performed a ritual of exorcism to drive out the old
gods and rededicated it to the Christian god. When I was an
evangelical Christian, because I was familiar intimately familiar
with both the New Testament and the writers of the early church, I
realised that such actions (in the context of Nova Roma) as taking
an oath to the Roman gods would not be contrary to my faith, and it
would still be binding to those particular entities. Christians
contribute quite a bit to various aspects of Nova Roma. And if they
still feel even after examining the historical evidence that they
cannot on principle serve in a religious capacity, then they simply
do not take any position which would require an religious
affiliation. Many Jews were roman citizens, and even served in the
government.. and yet, they were still fullfilling their obligations
to their God... though many opponents may have raised questions to
the extent of their Hellenism and their affiliation with the gods.

Christians should feel free to worship as they see fit, within the
boundaries of macronational law and the laws of Nova Roma. They
should be allowed to affirm their faith in public. Evangelisation and
speaking out against the religio roma should not be tolerated, as it
borders on blasphemy. But, we should NEVER deny someone willing to
make a worthwhile contibution to Nova Roma in the capacity that they
are religiously able to.

Lucius Modius Kaelus Iulianus

the Christian God, they as a part of their faith cannot believe in
the other Gods. Christianity and any other monotheistic religion by
there very nature cannot honor the Old Gods. Moreover they see them
as nothing more then myth that is how they are addressed in Sunday
service to children. I teach my child to honor the Lare and the
Penate, and the Christian child is taught that these things do not
exist or are demons. How does this help Nova Roma? Polytheism allows
for all Cultures to have their Gods, Monotheism does not. If a
Christian will proclaim that Iupitor(or any of the other 11) is the
Equal to his God then I have no problem with the Christian, if he
can't perhaps the Christian should find an organization that is not
dedicated to the expansion of the Religio Romana.If he remains he
will only hamper the endeavor.

The importance of the small stand of trees on the MM site is related to the
18th century history of Italy. I read about it on the MM Report earlier this
year. When dealing with Rome it is important to remember that every rock,

Avete Omnes,

It is my sincere pleasure to endorse Gaius Popillius Laenas for this position. I have known him for about 4 years, he has my confidence and trust and I believe that he is the best candidate for the position for a number of reasons:

First, I have had the pleasure of working with him when he was my Consular Quaestor. He was very determined and assisted Nova Roma in its very first tax collection. His reports were timely, concise and detailed. His experience as a magistrate and Propraetor of South East Provincia has been commendable. I believe that his demeanor and his character will be an asset in the Praetorship. Secondly and perhaps more importantly, as Praetor he becomes a member of the Senate. His professional background is an asset that is absolutely needed, for no Senators have such a background. He has been a Professional Accountant since 1979. He is involved in the AICPA. He is also a Certified Financial Planner and a Certified Employee Benefits Specialist. He has worked 10 years for a Big 8 Accounting Firm and he is the owner of his own consulting business. Finally, I think he would be an excellent Praetor because he has my confidence and trust. I believe that if anyone has an problems of any nature they could come to Gaius Popillius and be treated with utmost respect and discretion. I believe Nova Roma can use a man with the character and qualifications of Gaius Popillius and I hope that you will sincerely consider this candidate.

Most Respectfully,

Salve, Pauline, colleague,

Again excuse me by being so brief, but I hope I can answer you. Could I post this on ML?

TGP> "Why, the people can legislate on matters of religion can they not?"

LAF> Let me say that Lex Arminia Equitia doesn´t want to legislate on this. If the People has the right or hasn´t, It isnt with the scope of this law, neither of these magistrates.

TGP. "Again why?"

LAF: Again, religious polemic isn´t in the scope of this Tribune and of the Consul that worked with him.

TGP "So a Legate or Governor is superior in dignity to a Tribune or a Consul?"

LAF. On Ancient Rome, it wouldnt be possible to be proconsul and tribune at the same time. In NR there is this need. The Tribune couldnt leave Rome, the governor couldnt have Imperium inside Rome. That is why there is a exception for provincial magistrates. For exemple, you cannot be Pretor and Tribune. But you can be Propraetor and Tribune, since the Curule Dignity is on provincial level, not ´inside Rome´.

TGP "If you are outlawing this, does it mean it is currently LEGAL?"

LAF: No, there isnt outlawing.

TGP "Caesar was both PM and Consul of the Republic and while technically the PM is not a magistrate his person does hold sanctitas does he not?"

LAF: The PM doesnt hold sainctitas, just the plebeian magistrates, tribunes and aediles.


TGP: "Are you saying that a Senator that is also a Tribune (FAC) comes to mind, can not engage in any Tribune affairs if he is wearing his Senatorial toga?"

LAF: ´No. It is a roman use that the sainctitas magistratures arent magistrates, so they couldnt use special toga, like the ´real´ curule ones. A Senator isnt a magistrate, so he can be tribune and senator´

TGP; "This is violation of Article IV section 7 1-3 of the NR constitution"

LAF: No, it isn´t. Could you provide me the text and your interpretation of it? I havent see the violation.

TGP "Why? if the purpose is to "define the last of the five characteristics of the powers of Nova Roman magistrates" don't you think that you might want to list which office that includes?"

LAF I´d love to do it. However, the Constituion must do it. The laws are preparing the way to the Constitution Reform, so the new text will say

Consul: Imperium and Curule Dignity

Prateor: Imperium and Curule Dignity

Tribune: Sainctitas and Tribunicia Potestas

And so goes on... We are preparing the way to the Constituion new text. Nowadays, the COnstituion says Imperium, but is doesnt explain and give Impeirum to the wrong magistrates.

Thanks by the comments. I like a lot. THIS is the real work of a Tribune. I´d like to post these questionary on the ML. It is most useful for explain the law. What do you think?

Vale,

LEX ARMINIA EQVITIA DE SANCTITATE


This law, together with the Lex Arminia Equitia de Imperio and the Lex Arminia Equitia de Dignitate Curuli, is intended to define the last of the five characteristics of the powers of Nova Roman magistrates.

1.1) Although "sanctitas" is originally a religious term, this definiton and law will deal only with the legal consequences of sanctitas.
Why, the people can legislate on matters of religion can they not?


1.2) Religious definitions and the consequences of the attribution of sanctitas to the Religio Romana are not within the scope of this law.

Again why?

2.1) No magistrate may hold both sanctitas and curule dignitas at the same time, unless the curule dignitas is from a provincial magistrate.

So a Legate or Governor is superior in dignity to a Tribune or a Consul?

If you are outlawing this, does it mean it is currently LEGAL?

1.. Caesar was both PM and Consul of the Republic and while technically the PM is not a magistrate his person does hold sanctitas does he not?

2.2) No magistrate may be defined as having both these attributes.
3.1) A magistrate possessing the attribute of sanctitas may not possess any special symbol or feature of that magistrate, including the wearing of any special toga.

Are you saying that a Senator that is also a Tribune (FAC) comes to mind, can not engage in any Tribune affairs if he is wearing his Senatorial toga?

4.1) A magistrate possessing sanctitas may not be charged under Nova Roman law during his magistracy.

4.2) This law, however, explicitly states that this provision does not apply to macronational charges.

5.1) If a magistrate possessing sanctitas is put on moderation, he may be released by a simple veto of one tribune of the plebs.


This is violation of Article IV section 7 1-3 of the NR constitution


6.1) This law shall not be interpreted as defining in any way which magistracies possess sanctitas.

Why? if the purpose is to "define the last of the five characteristics of the powers of Nova Roman magistrates" don't you think that you might want to list which office that includes?

Tribune,

So far you and Maior are the only people engaging in petty politics,
and neither of you were privy to the discussions on the Collegium
list, making the pair of you equally clueless about what was and
wasn't discussed.

The Paranoid fantsises and wild wreckless charges from some of the
anti-boni people are going from mildly amusing comedy to outright farce.

Let me give you some statistics.

In 8 out of 10 cases, the citizens selected for Lictor had more century
points than those not selected. In the two cases where the citizen
selected had less century points than citizen who was not selected, the
difference in century points was 5 or less. Only 3 of the citizens not
selected had over 50 century points. 8 of the 13 not selected had 20 or
less century points.

Of the 10 citizens selected 5 hold one (or more) priesthoods. 6 are
Pater Familias. 7 have been elected to Public Office. 7 are current or
former Propraetors. 3 are Senators. 1 is an Equestrian.

In summary, out of the 10 citizens selected we have (current or former):

Consuls: 1
Senators: 3
Aediles: 3
Quaestors: 4
Tribunes: 4
Flamens: 2
Pontifices: 3
Augurs: 1
Sacerdotes: 1
Fetials: 1
Propraetors: 7
Legati: 5
Scribae: 5
Accensi: 5
Equestrians: 1
Pater Familiae: 6

So, to insinuate that the Collegium Pontificum voted purely for Lictors
soley based on some alleged political pro-Boni bias is patently absurd.

That is why there is a exception for provincial magistrates. For
exemple, you cannot be Pretor and Tribune. But you can be Propraetor
and Tribune, since the Curule Dignity is on provincial level, not
´inside Rome´.

Subject: The Fourth Age
Salvette, omnes.

We were doing so well yesterday. So much fun and jollity. Let's try
and keep some of that good spirit! A bit of light relief now follows.
The alternative history of the Fourth Age - no not Middle Earth, but
Bottom Earth in the Realm of NR (Nuked Ruins).

Vale
Caesar
---------------------------------------------------
THE FOURTH AGE OF NUKED RUINS

BBC TYPE VOICE: "Welcome to the procession of His Serene and Placid
Highness, the High King of the Reunited Kingdom of Nuked Ruins, King
Eclipsed II. Looking down from my vantage point I see the crowds
milling expectantly. Ah! I see him now. Oh! So majestic and calm! The
notes here indicate that he is wearing a robe of finest silk with
silvered stars and moons; a tribute to his most learned self's
passion.

Enter from stage right a grandiose procession of the Royal court. In
attendance the colonel-in-chief of the Royal Clowns, Maijor Tantrum,
the Royal Horse Otac, together with supporting mummers, bands of
roving charlatans and the world famous acrobatic troupe, The Flying
Prophets of Doom. A Royal Cohort of Fawners protects the Royal
Personage from view.

MAIJOR TANTRUM: Make way! For here cometh the Light of our Lives,
long may he reign, so long as the Thrones of the Lawyers endure!
Praise him! Praise him!

[Procession grinds to halt. Otac squats in road and tends to himself.]

MAIJOR TANTRUM: Silence for the Royal Wizard Pontiac Magnum Casino,
architect of our victory.

[Prolonged silence and non-appearance of Royal Wizard Casino ends
with Tantrum entering through impressive 1000 foot high doors of
nearby structure whose walls climb into the cloud ]

BBC TYPE VOICE: "Oh dear, something is amiss. Maijor Tantrum has left
us, ah yesÂ… she enters through the huge doors of reinforced legal
parchment that took 100,000 lawyers thirty years to masticate and
regurgitate and hand craft into these wonderful objects of wonder;
still no sign of the Royal Wizard. These doors that guards the Tower
of Laws and Babble that stretch into the nothingness of the VoidÂ…ahhh
wait I hear somethingÂ…."

[The plaintiff thin and reedy voice of Royal Wizard Casino wafts
through the doors]

CASINO: "I can't attend silly parades. I'm too busy dealing with
these horrible odious people complaining. They say they paid for
my "Old Fords Growth Beans but I can't find them",

[Tantrum heard to mumble something to Casino]

CASINO: "Oh really, how tiresome! Well if Eclipsed insists"

[A stupendously lithe and graceful Wizard Casino appears, wearing a
sumptuous robe of embroidered beans, clocks and other valuables. The
guard of Fawners parts to reveal King Eclipsed II to the gaze of the
onlookers]

CASINO: "I crown you Marinade the Gazer, as Eclipsed II, High King of
the Reunited Kingdom of Nuked Ruins. Let Nuked Ruins prosper for so
long as the Thrones of the Lawyers endure. Hail King Eclipsed!

[Royal Cohort of Fawners raise their hands gospel style heavenwards
and gyrate Dervish like in the mystical dance "Victorianus Virtuous",
while waving copies of Miss. Manner's Guide to Proper Behaviour in a
choreographed circular motion.

Maijor Tantrum at the same time signals the Royal Clowns to begin
their dance "Hunt the Nasty Black Bones", where the clowns sink into
the prepared Royal Mud and writhe ecstatically, led by Tantrum.
Tantrum grows redder and redder in the face, start exuding frothing
mucus from all orifices – then without warning dives head first into
the mud and emerges with the Nasty Black Bone, and starts the
orgiastic climax of the dance]

TANTRUM [sings]: "AHHH! THE PLOT REVEALED – I HAVE THE BONE
TO THE FORUM! ENGORGED BECOMES MY MOAN

[chorus] PLOT REVEALED! PLOT REVEALED! PLOT REVEALED!
PRECIOUS, SO PRECIOUUUUUSSSSSSSSS!

[Flying Prophets of Doom begin to fly between buildings grasping on
the slender strands of Royal Truth rope, so slender in fact a few
fall to their deaths as every now and then another strand of Royal
Truth snaps. The Prophets chant "Doom will come if Black Bone sits on
Kingly Chair". Otac continues to tend to himself, but now in time to
the music.

A harsh voice rises above the din, and the crowds slink back in fear.
Otac's reaction requires buckets to be produced; Casino raises his
antique walking stick in shock; King Eclipsed's stern and noble
countenance grows grim. It is the Lord of the Riders of the Black
Bone – come straight from the foul realm of Mordius]

LORD OF THE RIDERS: "Eclipsed, I say unto you that the Royal Robes of
Truth are false. The forces of the Bones are rising and your doom
cometh! Muaaaaahhhh"

[Shocked cries from the Royal entourage and wails of fear and
indignation.The crowd waits expectantly ]

ECLIPSED: I damn you to the nether regions. You are very, very, very
nasty people and I hate you, hate you! You have ruined my coronation
and upset my Royal Fawners. Shame, shame on you!
[A loud cracking sound is heard in the Tower of Laws and Babble, as
the Dark Lord raises his crooked finger. The Doors are sundered and
the walls wobble. Otac rouses himself and gallops frenetically around
in circles. Tantrum throws herself into the now smoking ruins of the
tower. From the midst of ruin suddenly rises a large beanstalk,
climbing ever skywards; clutching the top of it is Casino]

CASINO: "I found the beans! You see they did exist! Top of the world
Ma! Top of the World! No…you shan't have the beans – they are mine
all mine I tell you. My preciouuuuussssses"

[And so the curtain falls on the start of the Fourth Age of Nuked
Ruins. The forces of Darkness rule Bottom Earth at last. The Bones
are triumphant]

Mirriam-Webster's definition of micromanage has nothing to do with the proper
and rigorous observation of Nova Roman and Ancient Roman law and traditions.
To suggest otherwise, is to imply that a conservative and traditional
observance of the Religio is defined as zealotry. The powers and protection of the
Tribunes and Plebeian Aediles are derived from the ancient rights of sanctitas
and sacrosanctitas derived from the Temple of Ceres. The imperium of the
Consuls and Censors is derived from the Senate.

Subject: Candidacy for Praetor Suffectus: Some Details
P. Minucia Tiberia Strabo Senatus Populesque Nova Roma S.P.D.

I come before you,once again, at the request of one citizen who
posted on the list today, and at the request of others who continue
to support me as Praetor Suffectus during this election.

I refer you to message 23370, which was delivered by me during the
last Praetoral election of this year, for some details on my
involvement in Nova Roma. I have been a citizen since 2000.



You will read that I resigned during the latter half of my
magistracy the last time I was Praetor; 23370 contains the reasons,
and I will leave you to judge for yourself. I make no excuse, and
no further digression regarding these actions, other than I am very
thankful since then to have more clearly managed to identify those
persons who are truly in service to the Republic and the Religious
ideals, and those who seem to be merely subserviant and propagandant
of self-serving attitudes and ideals which could be extremely
detrimental to the Republic, including the stability of the Religio.
A spot check of posts made this year will enlighten much further
than I could; and I fully admit, and most at this point know, that I
have not always been lilly pure in my delivery on contentious
points. I'll add a bit more in the last couple of paragraphs.

Service as Praetor

During my last tour as Praetor Jan.-Oct. 2002, I, with my
collegia,revised the mainlist guidelines. Likely the major
accomplishment therein was establishing the freedom of informal
conversation in languages other than English, for the benefit of
European citizens who might not be fluent in same...atleast they
could shout out on the mainlist and ask who and where they might
converse with persons in their respective countries; we felt this
was necessary to make people feel welcome, generate growth, and
facilitate rights to open forums as outlined in the constitution.
This of course did not contravene the current lex which states
that 'formal' communication of leges, edicta, etc. are to be in
English/Latin or general prevailing list guidelines.

As Praetor I assisted with the imput of Gens Reform legislation, day-
to-day litigation queries, and generally tried to cooperate with
Senators and Magistrates as best I could..it is impossible, however
to be 'all things to all people'

My past experience in NR also includes:

Scriba Consularis Marcus Minucius-Tiberius Audens...2000
Scriba Curatrix Sermonen (List Moderator) P. Vedia Serena 2001
Propraetrix Canada Orientalis Dec. 2000-Oct.2002
Obstetrix Sodalitas Musarum (founding committee)
Legatus Sodalitas Militarium 2000-2002
Benefacarius Sodalitas Militarum 2002-
Legatus Sodalitas Egressus 2000-
Praetor Nova Roma Jan. 2002-Oct.2002
Accensus Consularis Caeso Fabius Quintilianus 2003
Scriba Curule Aedilis Marcus Iulius Perusianus 2004
Chief of Fundraising Staff Magna Mater Project-appt Marcus Iulius
Perusianus 2004

In 2002 I also assisted the Plebian Aedile T. Apollonius Cicratix
and his staff in the writing of Ludi scripts for the Ludi Apollonare
et Ludi Plebia

Macronational Experience

Macronationally, I am a Registered Nurse of 16 years, have been
married for 18 years.

I've undertaken, by virtue of experience, various leadership
responsibilities while working, and I have held past offices in
sororities I was affiliated with in the past.

(I don't use the term 'real life'...Nova Roma involves electronic
communication, but also many personal gatherings and the whole thing
to me, regardless, is quite 'real')

To insure the sincerity of my commitment to this Praetorship, in the
event I fail to finish my term, which, given all that I have learned
since 2002 is quite unlikely :) I shall donate a small, but
personally sacrificing sum of $250.00 U.S. to the Magna Mater Fund,
a project of Nova Roma, operating from Provincia Italia, which has
been sanctioned by the Senate, and is under the direction of the
Curule Aediles.

My Vision of the Republic and her Religio

My vision of Nova Roma is essentially the one which is given to you
on the web site www.novaroma.org. I have defended and will continue
to defend the Religio as the state Religion of Nova Roma, and will
work to prevent its dignatis erroded by those who would make it an
instrument for factioned iconoclastic grandiosity. This, in my view,
errodes the dignatis due the Gods and Goddesses, the Ancients'
religious patrons...it errodes the seriousness and reverence of any
religion, nonne?

The Religio needs to be the State Religion, it is too intricated in
traditional Roman culture to be otherwise; but a verbally caustic
line of demarcation doesn't have to be issued by certain persons
whenever a person of another faith is encountered on the mainlist,
and says the word 'religious' 'Christian' 'Wiccan'. This serves no
purpose, especially when nothing is said of any threat.

To preach a bit further if I may :), we must keep in mind that Nova
Roma does not, or cannot realistically secure any manner of
licensure over the celebration of Romanitas or the practise of the
Religio Romana. Human beings cannot package deities and place them
in a box and say 'that's mine'..That's been tried and it is not
doable. It is even less doable in a volunteer organization. There
is no such thing as the Plato's Eutopia of any Roman organization,
but there are other places Practitioners may go to practise the
Religio Romana, and/or celebrate Romanitas. Again, we are
a "volunteer" micronation; if we are to generate self-growth, a
sense of mutual comradry, the fruit of which is a decent pool of
monetary funds for our projects/dreams, we cannot project a
fundamentalist, hyper-conservative **'Landover Baptist' view of the
Religio or Roman Politics, nor can we truthfully boast a code of
nondiscrimination; are we seeing this being practised through
mainlist dialogues to each other when we read comments belittling
the use of English by writers from nonEnglish-speaking provincia?

**look up landover baptist on a search engine; it is an excellent
spoof on unrealistically hyperconservative Fundamentalism.

I do not believe that any one nation has a 'toehold' on our
Republic; we have no formal capital....such a place is where the
Senate and Populace of Rome deem it to be, not any macronational
country, or any one faction, and such has not been decided, although
there have been suggestions here on the ML recently as to where it
probably should be, according to their posters. We have a piece of
land, but this has not been established as the Capital of Nova Roma.

Political Affiliation/Philosophy

As you may have gleened, I am not aligned with the hyperconservative
faction of Nova Roma called the Boni:) As a tolerant and liberal
nonpractitioner, (or a nurse for that matter) I can't in any
sincerity be a part of a faction whose members post a steady diet of
written uncertainty about the appropriateness of nonpractitioners in
Nova Roma, and indeed, even the appropriateness of
certain 'practitioners' who do not agree with their respective
religious or political manifestos.(I refer you to the discussions in
April of this year on Animal Sacrifice...) I am not formally in any
faction; I relish workable key elements of the Conservative but I
cannot ignore modern constraints when doing so defies appropriate
treatment of others, and blatently defies macronational laws.

I am what the Boni would refer to as a 'modernist' (and a good many
other things:)) My goodness, I guess at this point I should actually
thank them for all of their recent posts...there is no way I will
collect a head of hubris with such continued admonitions with any
ease, now could I? Perhaps at one point I shall parallel their
virtue. Alas, all I can do, I'm afraid, is strive to improve.

I believe a common bond of ethics/spirtuality of all citizens in
Nova Roma are her virtues. This is one element we can collectively
celebrate as I see it, without jeopardizing the fiber of Nova Roma's
philosophies or religion.

I see myself as a Praetorial candidate for both Patricians and
Plebians, regardless of religious and political affilitation.

If you have any questions of me, I invite you to contact me through
the above address, or ask them on the list, and I shall do my best
to answer them.

Over regulation by laws is a feature of the Dominate and Modern Nation

We have 212 Taxpaying citizens and 77 Laws, that is a ratio of one law
for every 2.75 taxpayers. Of these 77 Laws 27, over a third, were
passed in less than a year. That is a definate case of micromanagement.

The Number of Taxpayers is less than it was last year, and the number

What do you expect? We have a Pontifex Maximus holding a Roman event in
Maine were he is too ashamed of the Religio to make it a part of the event. This
has been the case with Nova Roma from the beginning, the Religio cannot second
place. It has to be primary, otherwise what are we doing?

As a side note. I have some VERY close friends in Nova Roma who are not

I Can't read this as anything other than an open admission that you
have been drawing up an enemies list. We have seen several cases of
people motivated by personal grudges making wild accusations over the
last few days. The last thing we need is someone using a postion of
power to strike out at those on her list.

This enemies mentality is a danger to the unity of Nova Roma and it
disqualifies you from being fit to serve as Praetor far more than any
resignations.

Gaius Modius Athanasius, you should be ashamed of yourself. To hear
you, as a pontiff and a magistrate of Nova Roma, "agree with" a
position which would not only violate the spirit AND the letter of
the Constitution, but also cause bitterness and discord among our
citizens, is disheartening.

Arcanus Agricolus, let me explain something. As you may have
gathered, I am not a Bonus. I am not an ultra-conservative of any
stripe within or without Nova Roma. In the outside world, as an
Eastern Orthodox Christian, I am by necessity rather Tradition-bound
religiously. BUT:

I am a believing Christian. I do not hate the religio.

Let me repeat.

I am a believing Christian. I do not hate the religio.

Got it? To lump all non-practitioners together as unfit for
citizenship; to put all non-practitioners in a box
labelled "unworthy haters of the religio" is folly, absurd, and
borders on calumnia. If I were in a position that required it, I
would throw incense on the Altar of Concord. I would gladly observe
the rites of the religio publica, because I believe they are
necessary for the health of the State, if only psychologically.

Do not DARE to presume that you know what I think unless you ask and
I tell you. I have no problem speaking my mind, to the delight of
some and the horror of others, so it is not unthinkable that you
should ASK what a non-practitioner thinks before you declare who is
or is not fit to be a citizen.

You are correct. I was too quick to agree with him. As I have mentioned in
my response, I have many Christian and (one Jewish) friends in Nova Roma -
and honor our friendship greatly. I don't think they should leave.

However, I do agree that I am frustrated. I am frustrated because I am a
believer in the Religio Romana, and that if Nova Roma is to be a place to
reconstruct the Religio Romana then that should be a priority. Its not easy being a
Pagan in this day and age.

While this may be technically correct, I wonder how long someone who
didn't believe in the gods at all could or would continue to do the
rituals correctly? Anyway, as far as the Religio is concerned, I
think what you 'believe' is not really a good question to ask. To
me, saying 'do you believe in the gods?' is a bit like saying 'do
you believe in gravity?' What's there to believe or not believe? It
just is, and They just are. Asking about belief doesn't really make
sense...like I said before, about Fortuna, she *is* luck. Saying, 'I
don't believe in Fortuna' is basically saying: 'There is no such
thing as luck, the whole idea of it doesn't even exist'. It doesn't
make sense. So it's really just about whether or not you decide to
honour the gods, or whether you decide to say they are 'false idols'
and not to be respected or worshipped. It's not about believing or
not believing, it's about choosing to recognise the gods' place in
our lives and honour them.

This is just my personal opinion...it's not from any official source
or anything. But I hope it might make it clearer.

Supporting the religio is *not* synonymous with wanting to expel all
Christians and other non-practioners from Nova Roma. The religio is
not the *only* reason for Nova Roma, even if it is a primary one.

I think what Drusus is trying to point out (and it would be a bit beneficial for you to include at least part of the post you are responding too) that we are now getting to the point were we will have more laws than active citizens. That the laws proposed are nearly meaningless. What is the overall reason to promulgate these laws? What benefits do the citizens gain from its promulgation? And why do we need so many laws when the areas where NR needs improvement is being ignored by the magistrates?

Mirriam-Webster's definition of micromanage has nothing to do with the proper
and rigorous observation of Nova Roman and Ancient Roman law and traditions.
To suggest otherwise, is to imply that a conservative and traditional
observance of the Religio is defined as zealotry. The powers and protection of the
Tribunes and Plebeian Aediles are derived from the ancient rights of sanctitas
and sacrosanctitas derived from the Temple of Ceres. The imperium of the
Consuls and Censors is derived from the Senate.

Subject: Re: Why is it that.....Cato to Agricolus et Albina
G. Equitius Cato L. Iuliae Albinae Ti. Arcano Agricolo S.P.D.

Salvete, vir et domina.

There is no other organization that I have found that truly wishes
to encompass Romanitas as does Nova Roma, Arcanus Agricolus. Just
as you have chosen Nova Roma for the religio, which is a splendid
and worthy thing, I have chosen it for other reasons, which I think
are also splendid and worthy. The fact that the religio is, and
ought to be, *a* primary reason for the existence of Nova Roma does
not make the desires of others to share in different aspects of
Romanitas any less important.

I too want to see the religio expand; I too want to see the State
grow and prosper; to me, these two are part and parcel. You don't
even know that it was I, a believing Eastern Orthodox Christian, who
suggested that the State observe an official day of mourning for,
and pass an edict revoking, St. Theodosius I's decrees that
destroyed the religio and breached the pax deorum. Our Pater
Patriae even have offered to perform a piaculum on that day (if it
indeed happens) in hopes of closing that breach, or at least
beginning to. So don't tell me I don't support the Religio Publica.

I do not question your "capabilities or desire" out of hand; but you
have posted, as one of your "desire[s]", that you would like me, and
any other non-practitioner, to leave. That I do not just question
but reject out of hand. I hope you will change that particular
desire.


Iulia Albina, thank you (and I think it was M. Umbrius Ursus?) for
pointing out the relative "existentialism" of the religio. These
are things that I, as a Christian in my religio privata, do not
always understand; it is only when I am corrected instructively that
I can begin to understand the way various practitioners view their
own Faith.

Subject: Potential Sodalitas
Avete Omnes,

In the past couple of days, I have been in communication with soon to be citizen Lucius Modius Kaelius. He has some very good ideas and the one idea that we have been discussing recently is the development of a Sodalitas with the focus on education. Our discussion has focused on those citizens who are home schooling parents and students who are in a home schooling environement. In other words, this would focus on students who would be in the age range of 4 years of age til 18 (in the United States this would translate K-12). Initially the focus of this group would be to develop lesson plans to assist teachers, a venue to offer tutors to students, a place to discuss educational theories and subjects taught by the ancients and discuss ways to integrate those methods and subects in today's modern integrated subjects.

The long term goal of this potential sodalitas would be to create the foundation of a charter school. Since under no child left behind the ability to create and operate charter schools are being promoted this venue is something that can be achieved with hard work and dedication.

If anyone is interested in joining this list, please go to the following link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sodalitas_education/

representative for Provincia Thule in the Collegium Interprovinciale
for the year 2757 to 2758.

III. This edictum becomes effective immediately.

Given 5th of August, in the year of the Consulship of Gnaeus Salix
Astur and Gnaeus Equitius Marinus, 2757 AUC.

PACTVM DE CONVENTO NOVAE ROMAE IN EVROPA

Introduction

The Conventus Novae Romae directly follows the Nova Roma Rally which
was born in 2755 A.V.C.
The Conventus is a yearly event taking place between July and August.
Its aim is to offer all the Cives of Nova Roma the opportunity to
meet in a European locality to discuss, stay together and strengthen
the sense of unity within the Res Publica.

I. Venue of the Conventus Novae Romae

The Venue of the Conventus, chosen by the Collegium Interprovinciale
upon candidacy, has to be a locality in Europe. Only those Provinciae
whose governors undersigned this convention can host the Conventus
Novae Romae.

II. Candidacies

Every year each governor can propose one locality only within his
Provincia as a candidate to host the Conventus Novae Romae.
Such candidacy has to be submitted to the Collegium Interprovinciale
two years in advance, between January 1st and April 30th.
The candidacy shall include:
- the name of the locality;
- a map of Europe and a national one indicating the exact position of
the locality;
- the reasons for choosing such locality and a description of the
locality itself;
- the kind of links between the running locality and the rest of Europe;
- a description of what the Provincia can offer for the organization
and the success of the Conventus;
- any element deemed useful for the decision of the Collegium
Interprovinciale.

III. Collegium Interprovinciale

A commettee named Collegium Interprovinciale has the task of electing
the localities which shall host the Conventi Novae Romae.
The Collegium Interprovinciale is composed of a representative of
each Provincia which undersign this convention. Each representative
is appointed by the governor of his Provincia and has to be at least
18 years old.
Governors can not be members of the Collegium, therefore should a
member become governor he shall be replaced.
Each member continues in office for two years, and every year, on 1st
January, a part of the Collegium is renewed:
- in even years the representatives of Britannia, Germania, Italia
and Pannonia are renewed, should such Provinciae undersign the
convention;
- in odd years the representatives of Gallia, Hibernia, Hispania,
Thule and Venedia shall be renewed, should such Provinciae undersign
the convention.
Governors can reappoint the representatives of their Provinciae to the post.

Every year one of the two Aediles Curules shall be the President of
the Collegium. They shall choose upon mutual agreement the one
holding such position.

IV. Choice of the venue of the Conventus

Among all of the running localities the Collegium Interprovinciale
shall elect the venue of the Conventus. The elected locality will be
the one hosting the Conventus Novae Romae during the second year
after the voting.

While choosing the venue of the Conventus the Collegium shall
consider the following:
- adequacy of the resources offered by the Provincia for the
organization of the Conventus;
- links of the locality with the other Provinciae;
- distance from the last time the Provincia hosted the Conventus.

The voting, presided over by the President of the Collegium, takes
place between September 1st and September 15th of each year. The
locality which gets more votes shall be the winner. The result shall
be publicly announced by the President between September 16th and
30th. Until that date not even the Collegium Interprovinciale shall
know the result of the voting. Only after the announce of the result,
as a guaranty of non-manipulation, the President shall communicate
the Collegium the vote of each member.
Should the result having been manipulated it will be the Collegium's
task to publicly rectify what was announced by the President, or it
will be the President's task to rectify what he previously declared.

V. Organization of the Conventus Novae Romae

The Conventus Novae Romae shall take place during the first half of
August, and shall last no less than three days and no more than five,
not including arrivals and departures.
The organization of the Conventus and the assistance to the Cives who
want to participate is fully up to the host Provincia.
Not after January 1st of the year the Conventus shall take place in
the Provincia shall provide with a web site including:
- the program, final if possible, of the Conventus (minor
modifications can be made after);
- all relevant information on the accomodation of the participants;
- information on national and international transportations to reach
the venue of the Conventus;
- any further information deemed necessary.

Should it be deemed necessary to ask for inscription to the
Conventus, the date to start gathering inscriptions is January 1st.
The deadline to send inscriptions to the Conventus is established by
the host Provincia.
It is strongly recommended to include in the program of every
Conventus Novae Romae the following points:
- official opening of the Conventus with speech of the governor of
the host Provincia, said by the governor himself or by a deputy;
- Roman dinner:
- At least half a day of re-enactment where the participants may take
part to the various activities wearing Roman clothes.

The program of the Conventus can be enriched by lectures, meetings,
tours of museums, expositions, archaeological areas, shows, classes,
games and any other pertinent activity.

It is strongly suggested to assign one or two Cives the task to
assist the participants from other Provinciae in finding flights and
trains to reach the Conventus.

It is also recommended to include in the program some free time which
the Cives may use as they whish, to have some relax or to organize
small internal meetings.

At the end of each Conventus the host Provincia shall issue each
participating Civis a participation certificate.

In organizing the Conventus Novae Romae the host Provincia may
consider to seek the Aediles Curules' collaboration.

VI. Adherence to the Pactum de Convento Novae Romae

The governors of the European Provinciae who want to adhere to this
convention may do it by issueing an Edictum to which they shall
attach the text of the convention (Pactum de Convento Novae Romae).
It is recommended the text of this convention to be translated into
the languages of the Provinciae which undersign it.

VII. Validity of the Pactum de Convento Novae Romae

This convention is valid only if it is undersigned by at least three
governors.

Temporary provisions

A. In order to underline the connection with the Nova Roma Rally, the
numbering of the Conventus Novae Romae shall be consecutive.
Therefore, after the I Novae Romae Rally in Gallia and the II Novae
Romae Rally in Italia, the next one shall be the III Conventus Novae
Romae.

B. The III Conventus Novae Romae shall take place in Provincia
Hispania, in Segovia, from 6th to 8th August 2757 A.V.C.
Provincia Hispania is not required to follow the rules set by this
convention while organizing the III Conventus Novae Romae in Segovia.

C. On 1st January 2005 it shall be renewed a part of the Collegium
Interprovinciale. Therefore such members shall stay in office for a
period which is shorter than two years, as set by this convention.
However they can be reappointed by their governors.

D. Until 30th August 2004 the Collegium Interprovinciale accepts
candidacies for the IV and for the V Conventus Novae Romae, for 2758
A.V.C. and 2759 A.V.C. respectively.
The governors who will submit the candidacies shall indicated for
which year they are intended.
The Collegium shall vote between Ocetober 1st and October 15th. The
President shall announce the results between October 16th and
Ocetober 30th.

Subject: Flavius Vedius Germanicus and his eligibility to stand for office
Ex-officio Tribunus Plebis Tiberius Galerius Paulinus

Romans!

Recently our Consul Gnaeus Equitius Marinus removed Flavius Vedius Germanicus from the ballot as a candidate for Curator Araneum (Webmaster) and it appeared to some that the reason he did this was because of "conditions" that the Censors imposed on Flavius Vedius Germanicus upon his return to Nova Roma. I have asked both of our current Censors and they imposed no conditions on his return. Some believed that the Lex Cornelia et Maria de civitate would or should prevent him from standing for election for at least two years as he had resigned twice from Nova Roma. That would be true except that this Lex was not in effect at the time of his first resignation and so does not apply.

There is a Lex, however that would have compelled the Consul to take this action anyway and it is a Lex that
Flavius Vedius Germanicus himself wrote the Lex Vedia de Curso Honorum

II. No individual may assume the office of one of the ordinarii who has not been a registered citizen in good standing for at least six months. Such individuals may run for office prior to completion of this requirement, but must complete it prior to actually assuming the office itself.

While the public has been deprived, rightly in my estimation, of Flavius Vedius Germanicus services at this time of need he can if he choose stand for election in the fall of 2757 as he will have been a citizen in good standing for six months and can serve in office if the people of Nova Roma so desire.

It sounds like a very lovely idea. Lucius Modius Kaelius mentioned it to me, and I would certainly love to get involved. :)

Avete Omnes,

In the past couple of days, I have been in communication with soon to be citizen Lucius Modius Kaelius. He has some very good ideas and the one idea that we have been discussing recently is the development of a Sodalitas with the focus on education. Our discussion has focused on those citizens who are home schooling parents and students who are in a home schooling environement. In other words, this would focus on students who would be in the age range of 4 years of age til 18 (in the United States this would translate K-12). Initially the focus of this group would be to develop lesson plans to assist teachers, a venue to offer tutors to students, a place to discuss educational theories and subjects taught by the ancients and discuss ways to integrate those methods and subects in today's modern integrated subjects.

The long term goal of this potential sodalitas would be to create the foundation of a charter school. Since under no child left behind the ability to create and operate charter schools are being promoted this venue is something that can be achieved with hard work and dedication.

Thank you for joining the list. I am going to be posting some links I got regarding lesson plans. I also have some worksheets that I need to scan that will be very helpful for developing lesson plans and formulating objectives for instructors.
