True, with the basic colors of red, yellow, and blue one can create  
any color under the sun.  A multi-colored tunic was most likely woven  
using individually colored threads rather than dying a whole piece of  
cloth (I am not aware of tie-dye being fashionable before the 60's,  
but I may be wrong <grin>)  At the time of hand weaving this would  
take considerable time and effort, not to mention such a tunic would  
be rather expensive and out of the reach of the common person.

What can I say? Seems like I should have gone with those northern 
barbarians instead of the african ones...but the best man won. Good luck 
in the finals, I'll be betting my sesterties on your champion! :)

I wonder if researcing egyptian and greek textiles might shed some light on 
this subject? I figure  that if the Greeks and Egyptians could do it, then 
the Romans would have naturally copied the methodology. Seeing as there are 
no remains of Roman textiles to examine, perhaps there are textiles in other 
cultures during the same time period that survived?

Well, I try to find out as much as possible, and there is nothing that keeps 
me from looking into the more expensive tunics as well as the cheapest possible. 
The more information there is, the better. Thanks very much to everybody, 
who has or will post on this issue.

Salvete Omnes: 
 
I just wanted to add my voice in congratulating Curule Aedile Amulius  
Claudius Petrus, and his Scriba, Lucilla Cornelia Cinna, on all the  
work they have put into this beautiful festival. 
 
I logged into the chatroom last night, but, unfortunately, it seems I  
missed everyone by 'inches'.  I will try again. 
 
And, well, I didn't get selected for the glad combats....oh, well. 
Admittedly, I am not very good at submitting the proper forms, and, I  
realize that after giving my 'awesome' qualifications, it was  
probably better just to exclude me, to keep the combat encounters a  
little more even.  I can certainly understand this, and I sure  
wouldn't want anything deviating from fair play, here  :) :) 
 
Thanks Claudi et Luci for all your great work. 
 
Bene valete,

Salvete Omnes: 
 
Just some ideas about the proposed Census. 
 
If costs were kept to a minimum, I think the Census would provide us  
with a wealth of demographic information regarding Nova Roma. 
 
I do not worry about one or two or three who would actually try to be  
more than one person for whatever reason...granted the system is not  
perfect, but I think it is comprehensive enough to be useful.  And  
the bugs can be worked out as we go.  I do not think of the Census as  
a 'policing' thing, but more of an information collection vehicle. 
 
And this information is not exclusive to tax information.  As others  
have mentioned, the information from the Census would assist in the  
projection of tax monies receivable and would enable us to atleast  
budget on a ball park basis. Very true. 
 
Aside from this, a Census would help us determine where,  
geographically, the most growth is occurring in Nova Roma of active  
citizens...where is the least, and therefore where do we need to  
promote ourselves? 
 
It would help determine how many minors perhaps, how many minor  
citizens of citizens.  How are we growing in this area? 
 
Per se, one might ask, 'Why do we need to know all this?'.  Right  
now, we may not need this information, but the more we know about  
ourselves as a community, the better we are able to make plans for  
our growth, and moreover, the needs of groups of citizens of the  
community. If we are aware of the special needs of a given province,  
for example, these needs are more accurately taken into account by  
the magistrates and Senate. 
 
The census is not taken every year, and with the advent of the  
computer, I am projecting that it could be handled quite smoothly,  
with scribal assistance. 
 
Getting back to cost of the census, this is, doubtless, a  
consideration.  But phone calls can be handled on a local/ provincial  
level, or by someone who gets a special rate (like myself) long  
distance charge.  It is not as costly as one might think. 
 
The Census is also quite historical of Roma Antiquita. 
 
And, I know of no macronation who does not either a) do a census or  
b) demographic studies of some sort.  I don't see them surviving  
cohesively, otherwise.   
 
I think the effort would produce benefit in the long run.

PONTIFEX ANTONIVS GRYLLVS GRAECVS OMNIBVS QVIRITIBVS SALVTEM 
 
This is a dies nefastus publicus (NP), a day for special religious 
observance on which no legal action or public business can take place. 
 
This is the 4th day of the Ludi Cereris. 
 
Today is the Fordicidia, a festival in honour of Tellus (Earth). At dawn, a 
pregnant cow ('forda') is sacrificed to Tellus by the Pontifices on the 
Capitol. Then thirty pregnant cows (one 'forda' for each Curia) are 
sacrificed in honor of Tellus as well, in separate places. After the 
victimarii (butchers who assist the sacrifice) have taken the calves from 
the belly of their mother and entrails have been cut and offered in the 
altar fire, the Chief Vestal burns the foetuses whose ashes are the 
ingredient for the fumigations of the Parilia on April 21 [Ovidius, Fasti, 
IV.629-672]. 
Ovidius also tells a legend that explains the beginning of the festival in 
the reign of Numa: 
"When Numa was king, the harvest did not answer to the labour bestowed on 
it; the husbandman was deceived, and his prayers were offered in vain. For 
at one time the year was dry, the north winds blowing cold; at another time 
the fields were rank with ceaseless rain; often at its first sprouting the 
crop balked its owner, and the light oats overran the chocked soil, and the 
cattle dropped their unripe young before the time, and often the ewe 
perished in giving birth to her lamb. There was an ancient wood, long 
unprofaned by the axe, left sacred to the god Maenalus [the same as Pan, 
here equated with the roman god Faunus]. He to the quiet mind gave answers 
in the silence of the night. Here Numa sacrificed two ewes. The first fell 
in honour of Faunus, the second fell in honour of Somnus [i.e. Sleep]: the 
fleeces of both were spread on the hard ground. Twice the king's unshorn 
head was sprinkled with water from a spring; twice he veiled his brows with 
beechen leaves. He refrained from the pleasures of love; no flesh might be 
served up to him at table; he might wear no ring on his fingers. Covered 
with a rough garment he laid him down on the fresh fleeces after worshipping 
the god [i.e. Faunus] in the appropriate words. Meantime, her calm brow 
wreathed with poppies, Night drew on, and in her train brought darkling 
dreams. Faunus was come, and settling his hard hoof on the sheep's fleeces 
uttered these words on the right side of the bed: 'O King, thou must appease 
Tellus by the death of two cows: let one heifer yeld two lives in 
sacrifice.' Fear banished sleep: Numa pondered the visions, and revolved in 
his mind the dark sayings and mysterious commands. His wife [Egeria], the 
darling of the grove, extricated him from his doubts and said: 'What is 
demanded of thee are the inwards of a pregnant cow'. The inwards of a 
pregnant cow were offered; the year proved more fruitful, and earth and 
cattle yielded their increase."

I agree that gathering demographic information is a good idea. As with any 
study, however, the question of what information it is reasonable to gather 
should be carefully considered.

I can see it doing that eventually, yes. A static "snapshot" won't do much 
by itself, but a series of data points can indeed be interpolated.

For myself, I have no objection whatsoever to the census itself, and 
actually believe it to be a good idea for the reasons you mention among 
others. My objection applied only to the proposal to make everyone "prove" 
their identity, which I do not believe to be feasible, useful, or necessary.

Salvete cives et amici, 
 
Last nights gladiator combat was a great success! My thanks to the many 
citizens that joined me in the arena to enjoy the spectacles! Today we will 
be having our fourth match. I welcome you all to join in tonight at 9:00 PM 
ET in the Nova Roma chat room. 
 
 
RECORD OF MATCH III: 
 
Today is the third day of the Cerialia gladiator combats, and as your Junior 
Curule Aedile, it is my pleasure to present to you todayıs match. The arena 
is all prepared so I will now introduce todayıs competitors! 
 
He is a curious blend of Roman and British blood, and this shows in his 
unusual face.  He lives in Britannia, but travels to Rome frequently. Thus 
unable to find acceptance in society, he enjoys combat and chariot races. 
This is the invincible Titus Sertorius Albinus, hired by citizen Servius 
Cornelius Cato! 
 
His opponent came from one of the last villages in Gaul to fall, and he was 
found and put into slavery. He is also out to revenge his dead friend! This 
is the the triumphant Asterix Vindicator, hired by citizen Sextus Apollonius 
Scipio! 
 
The two gladiators are now saluting the cheering audience and the officials. 
I raise my hand and they take their positions. I drop my hand as a single 
for the battle to begin and the fight starts! 
 
Titus starts off the match by going into a defensive position. 
 
Asterix quickly runs up to his opponent and stabs out with his sword. The 
fast attack forces his opponent back a few steps, although he manages to 
block the sword with his shield. 
 
Titus responds by quickly dodging away from the attacker and putting more 
space between him and his opponent. 
 
Asterix slowly makes his way back over to Titus and suddenly unleashes at 
powerful attack against him by stabbing at his chest. This attack is quickly 
stopped by Titusı shield. 
 
Titus, seeming quite calm but being very careful, searches for an 
opportunity to attack. When one comes, he slashes, but is pushed back by the 
sword of his opponent. 
 
Asterix notices the undefended shoulder of his opponent and stabs outward, 
although Titus manages to move his shield into a position to block. 
 
Titus responds by being very careful. He glares at his opponent for a few 
moments before finding the perfect opportunity and striking out against his 
arm. His attack hits and a hideous gash is created on the left arm of 
Asterix. 
 
Asterix grabs his arm in a futile attempt to stop the bleeding and backs 
away. 
 
Titus does not let another opportunity escape and is quickly upon his 
opponent again, and slashes this time at his chest. The sword scrapes across 
the body of Asterix and he drops his shield and stumbles back. 
 
Asterix continues to stumble around until he is able to take an unbalance 
defence stance. 
 
Titus also takes a defence stance, and waits for his opponent to collapse or 
attack. 
 
Asterix seems to regain his balance and is upon his opponent, quickly 
stabbing at his chest. The sword hits the right shoulder of Titus disabling 
his right arm. 
 
Titus cringes and dodges away from Asterix, putting more room between the 
two of them. 
 
Asterix carefully approaches his opponent once again. He searches for an 
undefended part of the body and quickly stabs at Titus. Titus is almost 
pierced by the sword, but at the last possible moment, is able to block with 
his shield. 
 
Titus responds by doing the same. He carefully searches for an opportunity 
and when he sees one he stabs out. The sword plunges into Asterix and the 
match is ended! 
 
Titus Sertorius Albinus and his sponsor Servius Cornelius Cato are 
victorious! Congratulations to our newest champion in the gladiator combats! 
The name of Servius Cornelius Cato will be posted in the ludi section of 
NovaRoma.org under champions! 
 
Valete,

Ave Marce, 
 
Thanks for compiling this impressive list. Here's one more: 
Colonia Iulia Equestris (aka Noviodunum) 
http://www.archeodunum.ch/Nyon-amphitheatre.htm 
Today Nyon, Switzerland. The amphitheater was discovered in 1996. 
 
Vale bene,
