I think that’s from the first Percy Jackson movie, one of the favorite book/movie series of my daughter. [ATTACH] For years, I thought this was...
Thank you. I will probably keep asking you stupid questions about Latin in the future now, because: [ATTACH] Google translator bites the dust again.
I sometimes get envious of those that specialize in these nice big Antioch provincials. It’s an area that I have considered myself, but decided...
As we’re into Latin cases, and this also is one of your areas, @Roman Collector : When I look for the translation of «Apoll Salutari», the...

Really? I didn’t realize that these were hard to get, as they are fairly common, at least Severus. They’re pretty popular though. I have had mine...
There must be a lot of die variations on these Dea Caelestis reverses? Here she is with a thunderbolt that looks like a big hot dog, and her arm...
