Nomen mihi est______________________

Romans, trample them and send them running. But the Romans learned quickly. At the battle of
Beneventum they found a way to face an elephant charge…and win! What did they do?
2. Some of the young men in the conquered lands did not want to fight in the Roman Army. It meant
leaving their homes, farms, and families to fight (and maybe die) in some distant corner of the
world. The young men cut off the thumb of their right hand so they couldn’t hold a sword. If they
couldn’t hold a sword then they wouldn’t be expected to fight in the Roman army. The Roman
generals realized that all of these thumbless young men were trying to outwit them. What was
their solution?
3. What is decimation?
4. Who was Boudicca and why is she important?

Translate the sentences: (on the exam there will be 5)
Hercules, Alcmenae filius, olim in Graeciā habitabat. Hic omnium
hominum validissimus erat. Sed Iuno, deorum regina, Alcmenam odiebat et
Herculem etiamtum infantem interficere temptavit. Itaque duas serpentes
misit. Hae in Alcmenae cubiculum, Hercule dormiente, serpserunt. Frater
eius clamavit se esse territum, sed Hercules parvus statim serpentes digitīs
cepit et earum colla compressit. Tum Alcmena audivit et vidit Herculem
ridentem monstrare serpentes mortuas.
Post multos annos, Hercules cum uxore, Megarā, et liberīs vitam agebat.
Subito Juno eum in furorem egit et uxorem liberosque eius occidit. Brevi tempore
ad sanitatem reventus, propter malum Hercules magno cum dolore movebatur.
Itaque ad oraculum Delphicum advenit, rogaturus auxilium. Postquam Hercules
huic narraverat familiam necari a se, Pythia per quam Apollo dicebat iussit
Herculem petere regnum Eurysthei. Eurystheus illi de decem laboribus
conficiendīs narravit. De hīs laboribus multum a poetīs scriptum est, sed multa
quae poetae narrant non possunt credi.
Unus ex laborīs erat occidere leonem in Nemeā cuius cutis erat durus ut
robor. Post longum tempus Hercules, collum eius bracchiīs tenitus, eam
interfecit. Leone necato, Hercules cutem per vitam gerebat. Labores octo
postea confecit: cum centauribus et equīs ingentibus pugnabat, tum
Eurystheus dixit, “Neca hydram quae est immanis serpens. Uno capite secto,
dua capita revenient.” Hercules eam occidere non poterat solus, itaque puer ei
auxilium dedit. Propter dolum Eurystheus iussit eum conficere duos plus labores.
Hercules cepit poma aura, quae filiae Atlantis tegebant. Atlas erat stultus itaque Hercules
fugit cum pomīs. Summus labor omnium erat capere Cerberum. Laboribus omnibus iam confectīs,
Hercules erat laetus per tempus longum. Aut eratne? Centaurus, Nessos, uxorem novam Herculis
decepit. Ei dicit, “Audi mea verba monenta. Hercules te non amabit nisi hoc illi dabis.” Sanguinem
eius dedit, et illa in tunicā Herculis posuit. Ab uxore deceptus, Hercules occissus est. Eheu!
In fine, Hercules a Iove in Olympum portatus est.
