"Et Tu Brute" -what a scene. I would most certainly visit this spot if I were in Rome. I've never been but imagine the juxtaposition of the ruins, bus stops, taxi's and modern architecture must be a trip.

The Romans have great history and this story is one of the greatest, but yet I do not find myself all that interested in Roman history. The Greeks and Japanese really are my favourite cultures to study. I love the greeks because of the great contrast between the states of Sparta and Athens. The Japanese amazing with their warrior class and the fact that in the society that is often viewed as spiritual and honor based, there are records of people suing each other left and right over the most petty of things.
