Caeso Fabius Quintilianus
and other interested.

C. is the way Romans usually wrote CAIVS (CAIA) aka Caius or Gaius masculine
or Caia / Gaia femenine

Cn. is the way Romans usually wrote CNAEVS aka Cnaeus or Gnaeus masculine.
I am not sure of the femenine of the top of my head, sorry, (brain fart)

These being the only two original Roman "first names" you should understand
that if those initials are used befor a Family name, ther represent the name
Caius or Cnaeus. All other "First Names" are "imports" to Roman names and
probably should be spelled out.

I have been signing my Roman letters and articles and stuff as C. Fabius
for 24 years now, but here at NR I will try and sign .....

C. Fabius Varus

sorry if I forget

Subject:	[novaroma] Live Nova Roma event in Ohio?
From:	"pjane@-------- " <pjane@-------->
Date:	Tue, 26 Dec 2000 21:22:22 -0000

Salve!

Nova Roma has been invited to participate in "Muster on the Maumee," a
multi-period historical re-enacting event in Ohio June 16-17.
Participation is free, but there are fees for vendors.

These multi-period events are a great way to publicize ancient Rome in
general and Nova Roma in particular. If anyone would be interested in
coordinating a Nova Roma presence at this event, let me know and I'll
mail you the information.

Some time ago, I have read that the fem. form of Cnaeus is Nevia, but it can be only a portuguese form.
Hope this helps.
