Ave,

I spoke with Decius Iunius on the phone....about 2 weeks ago. He mentioned
to me that with the lack of writers for articles that he didnt have many
options. So he told me he was going to make it bi-monthly. Frankly, I dont
even know if he is on the Main list anymore. But I will CC: this message to
him. :)

From:	"pjane@-------- " <pjane@-------->
Date:	Wed, 29 Nov 2000 00:51:19 -0000

This question bring up an interesting point: The Eagle will need a new
editor (one of the Vigintisexviri, or minor magistrates) in the coming
year. This is an important job for Nova Roma and one that could give
the right person a chance to do a great deal of good for our
organization and for the cause of Roman awareness.

Editorial skill is helpful for the job, but the real essential skill
is the ability to muster others to assist - perhaps a mailing-list
manager, some regular columnists, even a layout assistant. The person
who can coordinate such a team and motivate consistent contributions
over the course of the next year will do Nova Roma a tremendous service.

I encourage anyone who can commit some time to this cause to run for
the post.

Patricia Cassia

P.S. Honored Consuls, would you be so kind as to post a list of the
available positions in the coming election, along with the
qualifications for each?

Quirites.

One of teh items on the current Senate Agenda, which the Tribune Australicus has
posted to this list concerns whether or not to have the meetings of the Senate
available on a Read Only basis for the people of Nova Roma. Since the title of the
item is very bare and dry, "Internal Senate Procedures", I decided it was a good
thought to post the entire text so that the people can read it.

Since this is a public matter I will feel free to make public any private
correspondence I get on this matter, at my own discretion.

Valete.
C. Aelius Ericius.

Internal Senate Proceedures.
Per Section V, Paragraph F of the constitution: The Senate may issue a
Consultum governing it's internal proceedures
This Item has two parts. Both, one or none may be approved

A. Senate Openness
The Senate shall conduct its business within full view of the
Citizenry. This will be implemented by allowing all Citizens to read
(but not post on) the Senate e-mail list.

Exceptions will be made in specific cases involving lawsuits by or
against Nova Roma; issues of hiring and firing paid personnel, should
Nova
Roma ever have such; and issues which if exposed to the public eye would

result in the unacceptable invasion of a Citizen's privacy.
In such cases, the Senate will retire into "executive session,"
achieved by the setting up of a nonpublic e-mail list, which will be
used only for the discussion of that issue and then disbanded. The
Consuls will be responsible for setting up and deleting
executive-session lists, and ensuring that such lists are used only
for discussing issues which qualify under the categories outlined
above.

B. II. The votes of individual Senators, along with any rationales they
offer with their votes (i.e. in the same e-mail as the vote itself),
will be made available to the Citizens by the Tribunes of the Plebs,
either by forwarding them to the main Nova Roma e-mail list or by
posting them to the Nova Roma web site. Senators wishing to make
remarks, but
not to have them forwarded to the general Citizenry, may do so in a
separate
message. This would done by the Tribune(s) of the Plebians

From:	"pjane@-------- " <pjane@-------->
Date:	Wed, 29 Nov 2000 03:47:36 -0000

Salvete omnes!

This weekend marks the ritual of Bona Dea, which in ancient times
brought together the respectable matrons of Rome in a rite which was
secret from men, and which was essential to obtaining the blessings of
the Good Goddess upon the city.

We don't know exactly what went on, but we are told that "milk" (wine)
was consumed, music was played and debauchery was rumored.

I shall be joining with one or two women on Friday night to do honor to
Bona Dea, and to celebrate in a fashion adapted from ancient rites.
Tradition forbids me to reveal the exact plans to a mixed-gender
audience, but I believe the "Gladiator" DVD will play a role.

Women of Nova Roma, I invite you to take a private moment this weekend
to ask the Good Goddess for her blessings upon Nova Roma. And if you
happen to have some "milk" handy, or a couple of Romanae to join you,
so much the better.

Patricia Cassia, will this do?

I've got a dinner planned with my "wild woman" women friends
on Friday night, where "milk" is sure to be imbibed, and
also with them on Saturday. All women. All of whom I have
tortured with Roman food, Roman literature rantings, and my
own poetry re Roman subjects in the past. And who, while
they look at me funny, still invite me out.

So if I tell them about Bona Dea, maybe it will sort of be
like being there with you in spirit. :)

Although I am really fresh to NR my wish to serve the community is strong.

So far I serve as Scriba for my sister Livia Cornelia Aurelia, Propraetrix of America Austroccidentalis, working as Retaria pro tempore.

I am as well active in the Sodalitas Egressus and the Musarum.

All of last year, I have been working in the managing committee of a German association - this might recommend me for the position of a Quaestor as well.

Titus Labienus Fortunatus Quiritibus S P D

I stand before you clad in the toga candida, announcing my desire to serve you
as a tribunus plebis.

I have been a citizen since July 1998, and have dedicated myself to Nova Roma’s
growth and health since then. I served with C Marius as one of Nova Roma’s
first rogatores, and am currently serving the res publica as scriba censorialis
to Censor Merullus and, to a lesser degree, as accensus consularis to Consul
Audens. Additionally, I was elevated to the Senate for the service I provided
to the res publica while a rogator.

Now, I ask you to allow me to step upon the first rung of the Cursus Honorum
and be of further service to the people of Nova Roma. As a practicing Stoic, I
will endeavor to be a conscientious, incorruptible, hard-working, and
accessible magistrate.

I invite anyone who wishes to discuss my opinions and policies to contact me
privately at labienus@--------, publicly through either this list or the
NR_DignitasForum list, or by scheduling a meeting at the new plebeian chat room

Marcus Prometheus omnibus civibus SPD

I appeal to the senators and magistrates to avoid annexing the entire
territories of multinational states (like Switzerland) to a single
bordering province.

This is not historically correct and is not respectful of prospect CIVES
and is not liberal at all.

Prospect Swiss cives from the French speaking part (the western third of
Switzerland) or from the smaller Italian speaking part (canton Ticino) most
probably would prefer to be "annexed" to the bordering province of their
language, Gallia or Italia.

BUT also in these cases considering that we are a VIRTUAL STATE, and not a
state controlling a real territory, we can afford very easily to be even
more liberal and to respect EACH single citizen preference.

This can be made easily and without any problem:
Let's us suppose a the citizen doesn't reside any more in his original
canton
and lives in a canton of another language:
For instance a Swiss citizen born in Geneva from a French speaking family,
let's say monsieur Dupont de Geneva resides now in Basel, a German speaking
canton.
Perhaps he joined originally Provincial Gallia but he also might be
permitted (and without problem) to join later Provincia Germania if and
when he hears that in nearby Baden Wuttenberg or in Bavaria there is more
Nova Roman activity.

In conclusion, I propose:

1) More correct theoretical attribution of territories along linguistic
cultural lines

2) To lessen the importance of borders:
The above attribution of territories MIGHT be done most reasonably and
carefully as possible, BUT also (to avoid dramatizing), it might absolutely
be only an indication and not a constraint for prospect cives which might be
free to join the Province of their preference, without being
bureaucratically constrained to anything against their likes.

3) If the two above are not possible, I would even suggest do not to
attribute any multinational state to any neighbor but to leave single
citizens free to join the Nova Roman Province of their choice.


I conclude affirming that cultural allegiances pass mostly through the
hearts and minds of people and do not follow very much borders traced on
the ground, and much less follow borders traced or copied from casual
realities, especially in the virtual World.

Subject:	[novaroma] Electronic Journal of Mithraic Studies: Update
From:	"Antonio Grilo" <amg@-------->
Date:	Wed, 29 Nov 2000 19:36:56 -0800

Dear sirs,

The Electronic Journal of Mithraic Studies (EJMS) is a revival of the
Journal of Mithraic Studies edited by Dr. Richard Gordon. It is a place
where researchers on Roman Mithraism can publish the product of their
research and make it freely available for other interested people. The
journal concerns all aspects of the mysteries of Mithras, including history,
archaeology, theology, sociology, others. Its span includes related
religions and cults such as Persian Zoroastrianism and other cults in the
Roman Empire. The EJMS is based at the University of Huelva, Spain, and is
managed by an Editorial Board composed of scholars of Mithraism and Roman
Religion with international projection.

The Electronic Journal of Mithraic Studies started in 17/05/2000, and since
then new material has been added which may be of your interest.

1) Volume I - Papers
http://www2.uhu.es/ejms/papers.htm
- Sch|tz (M.), "Hipparch und die Entdeckung der Prdzession".
- Griffith (A.), "Mithraism in private and public lives of the 4th-c.
senators in Rome".

2) Volume I - Archaeological Reports
http://www2.uhu.es/ejms/archreports.htm
- Griffith, Alison B. : "A New Mithraeum in Hawarti, Syria".
- Gordon, Richard: "Mithraeum in G|glingen, Landkreis Heilbronn
(Baden-W|rttemberg), Germany".
- Gordon, Richard: "Mithraeum in the vicus of Wiesloch, Lkr. Rhein-Neckar
(Baden-W|rttemberg), Germany".

3) CIMRM Supplement
http://www2.uhu.es/ejms/cimrm.htm
The establishment of the Electronic Journal of Mithraic Studies provides a
forum suited to the publication of a Supplement to M.J. Vermaserens Corpus
(1956-60). In the later years of his life, Maarten Vermaseren, though
largely occupied with the Corpus of monuments relating to the cult of the
Mater Magna and Attis and the later volumes of EPRO, had been assiduously
collecting materials for a third volume of CIMRM, which was intended also to
contain a revised version of the Mithraic passages presented by Cumont in
Textes et monuments and supplemented by an appendix in Mysthres de Mithra
(Brussels, 1913), 247-9. I was told that on his death in 1990 this material
was passed to a Dutch scholar for editing, but I have no knowledge of its
present whereabouts. Meanwhile, Mithraic materials have continued to accrue,
and it has long been felt that steps should be taken to create a supplement
to take account of discoveries since about 1960. There is no individual with
the kinds of international contacts enjoyed by Vermaseren, but the
Electronic Journal does offer an opportunity to present news of new
discoveries, such as that at Hawarti in Syria, and it seems reasonable to
extend its coverage to include a supplement to CIMRM.
If any scholars are willing to provide material for either section of the
Supplement, we would be extremely glad to hear from them by e-mail or
otherwise. Corrections to our revisions by those whose information is more
accurate are also very welcome. My email address (Dr. Richard Gordon) is
michra@-------- . Our immediate aim in this year is to get on with Part I,
corrections and revisions to Vermaserens Corpus, but there is no reason why
a start should not also be made on Part II.
Technical questions, for example about scanning photographic material,
should be referred in all cases to the Web-master, Antonio Grilo, at
amg@-------- . Provisionally, at any rate, it is proposed that the
Supplement should be written, like Vermaserens CIMRM, in English.
Dr. Richard Gordon

Subject:	[novaroma] Candidacy for Praetor Urbanus
From:	Caius Flavius Diocletianus <3s@-------->
Date:	Wed, 29 Nov 2000 22:15:53 +0100

Caius Flavius Diocletianus Quiritibus S.P.D.

Standing before you today, I offer my services as Praetor Urbanus for
the upcoming year to the Senate and the People of Rome.

I serve Nova Roma as Legatus Germaniae since June 2753 AUC. As Legatus
Germaniae, one maior project was the improvement of Germaniaīs
provincial infrastructure. For this purpose the Germania Website was
developed which is now one of the maior provincial websites in our
Republic.

Iīm am member of the Sodalitas Militarium, serving there as Retarius pro
Tempore, and the Sodalitas Egressus.

In my real-life-job as a high-ranking official in a city government I
collected much experiences and knowledge in public administration. If
you allow, I will bring in these experiences for the benefit of our Res
Publica.

All citizens interested in my person, my qualifications, political views
and opinions are invited to mail me directly at 3s@--------, or to
visit my Candidates Page at www.diocletian.de/elect/diocletianus/.

Valete
Caius Flavius Diocletianus
