Document Summary
Wrote about his experiences while on the sabine farm. Remember that they are both poets, not necessarily telling us everything about themselves. When last discussed, looked at the make-over from series of hit villages on the tops of hills, to a much more elaborate city made out of great structures and decorations. Temple of jupiter optimus maximus was the greatest temple in italy at the time. The tarquin kings (5th and 7th kings of rome) were also responsible for the cloaca maxima, a very large drain to take the water off the low-lying areas for more land. From regal into republic continuation of building and construction. One romans come in contact with the greeks, major influences come from them. First coin (with jupiter optimus maximus) inspired by greek coins. Did not have coins prior to this, inspired by greeks and carthaginians. Roman coin, because of roman chariot (four horses abreast) and says roma across the bottom.
