HISTORICAL QUIZ

From April 21 onwards, an historical quiz based on famous Latin quotations, entitled Ipse dixit, shall take place on the main Nova Roma mailing list. I will be posting questions relating to a famous phrase in Latin (3 questions for each phrase). The phrases shall come from various periods of ancient Roman history, including the Christian one - which means that at least one quotation from a Gospel shall be included in the quiz. The religious significance of a phrase, if any, shall not interfere with the Religio Romana or with the personal beliefs of any citizens.

All Nova Roman citizens from all Provinciæ may enter the quiz.

The scoring shall be as follows:

  • 2 points for each correct answer
  • 0 points for each wrong answer
  • -1 points for each missing answer (not given)

The quiz shall happen in 6 rounds, each one relating to a phrase and its own set of questions. At the end of the six rounds, the highest-scoring citizen will be the winner and will be rewarded with a new NR coin, as well as a place of honor on the Ludi Ceriales page. If two or more citizens obtain an equal score at the end, a special tie-break round will follow, with individual questions addressed to each top-scoring entrant.

All answers to the historical quiz should not be posted on the main list, but sent privately to me (ugo.coppola@tin.it).
