HQ: [x] [x]So, the first pic is something along the lines of “the most notable women in Caesar’s life.” I realize that Calpurnia doesn’t really fit, ‘cause she played no active part in his life. But I like her, so I added her to the list. The second one is “Caesar’s best friends.”A couple of notes… 1. There were no such names as “Aurelia Cotta”, “Cornelia Cinnilla”, “Julia Caesaris”, “Servilia Caeponis” or “Calpurnia Pisonis.” They had only one name, derived from the nomen. I don’t know where it comes from, but it’s probably the influence of Colleen McCullough. I don’t remember if she used “Caesaris” in her books, but she definitely used “Cinnilla” instead of “Cornelia.” Her books are well-researched, but they contain a number of inventions. So if you see someone call Julia “Julia Caesaris”, it’s incorrect.2. I know that in earlier translations of Plutarch the friend to whom Caesar wrote his famous phrase is called Amatius/Amantius. But I’m taking Conrad Cichorius’s emendation (Römische Studien, 1922) that it should be read as “Matius.” Other historians agree with him. -- source link
