Chapter 844

  The Pantheon is located in the center of Rome. It was built in 27-25 BC and was built by Agoliba, the son-in-law of Octavius, the first emperor of the Roman Empire, to worship the gods on Mount Olympia.

But in the legend of Mithraism, the **** Mithra was born from a cave. The worship of Mithra was very common among soldiers in the Roman period. Where there are Roman military camps, there are sun caves and Mithra. Teaching stele.

  Military power is very important to the emperor and cannot be handed over to someone who cannot trust him. Agoliba was the Roman military commander and naval strategist. In the Roman Civil War, he followed the governor Gaius Octavian in the East and West, and won many major naval victories, helping Octavian to wipe out the alien forces and unite Rome. However, after the establishment of the Roman Empire, Agrippa had He led an expedition to Spain, and died in the campaign in 12 BC.

  Mitra is not a native Roman religion, but originated from ancient Persia. “mitra” can be interpreted as a companion of a contract or a tool of restraint.

Joining Mithraism is equivalent to joining the "fraternity", which is different from those who did not join, but Mithra is not a Greek or Roman god. If reported by someone, it may end up instigating a young Greek like Socrates. Philosophers who do not believe in God are even more miserable.

  In Pomona’s view, the Roman Pantheon was not dedicated to the gods of Olympus, but to Mithra.

Octavius ​​had no sons. After 14 AD, he passed on to his adopted son Tiberius. He controlled the Guards, and he was not as good as his son-in-law Agrippa in terms of reputation.

  Tiberius spent his childhood in hardship and sorrow, and often followed his parents everywhere to avoid enemies who pursued them. After his mother Livia remarried, Tiberius and his younger brother became Augustus’s son. Tiberius originally had a wife, and the two had a deep relationship, and they had a son.

Augustus Octavian was the legislator who severely punished adultery, but his adopted daughter, Yulia, the daughter of his second wife and other men, lived a life of bohemian after two failed marriages. .

There was a lot of discussion in Rome. Octavian’s current wife Livia once preached that women should remain absolutely chaste, never interfere in her husband’s affairs, and be indifferent to her husband’s beloved lovers, so she was particularly hostile to Yulia. Completely, she slandered Yulia through various means such as spreading rumors and sending undercover agents.

  In order to ease the conflict between his daughter and his wife, and to calm the turmoil, Octavian once again acted as a matchmaker, marrying his daughter to Livia’s second son, Tiberius.

Owing to his parents’ affection, Tiberius was reluctant to sue his wife who was tired of adultery and emotionless, but he resolutely asked for retirement under the pretext of poor personal health, and resolutely sailed to Rhode Island, where he lived as an ordinary citizen. Life avoids cumbersome government affairs and unchaste wives.

Yulia’s debauchery finally reached a situation where Augustus could not afford to stay. Especially after Tiberius left, Augustus’s friends even "caught the adulterer for affair. If the husband does not accuse him, the father must sue." The decree questioned Augustus, claiming that if Augustus ignored his daughter, he would sue to court. Augustus had to issue a sentence of execution to his daughter and exiled her to the island, but the pain did not end, and Augustus still had no suitable heir.

  Two grandsons of Augustus died before their mother. Yulia’s daughter inherited her mother’s morals and attributes, and the evidence of adultery was conclusive, and Augustus was exiled to a small island in the Adriatic Sea.

  After Augustus died of illness, Tiberius was unanimously agreed by the Senate to inherit the ownership of Augustus legally and let Tiberius succeed the Roman emperor.

  Tiberius was both the adopted son and son-in-law of the Roman emperor. Among the later Roman emperors, there were sons-in-law who inherited the emperor's position. This is very different from the way the East inherited the throne by blood.

  An adopted son who wanders overseas, has no prestige, and has not been involved in politics for a long time. Compared with the admiral who is in the sky, Tiberius is of course easier to control. He can't control even a woman, let alone an empire.

  But Tiberius may not be able to treat his wife, but he is not so bully. Compared with economic development, Tiberius pays more attention to social security, suppresses bandits that run around and suppresses illegal riots. The biggest influence on later generations was that he established a 6,000-man "Guard Infantry Brigade" and stationed them in the city of Rome, which became another foundation for the consolidation of imperial power.

Tiberius has a deep and harsh personality. Although Tiberius’s series of measures have effectively improved finances and national defense, for ordinary Roman people, it is boring without public entertainment, emperor grants, and military triumphant rule. Therefore, Tiberius, who was obviously more stingy than the first emperor, was not popular among the people.

  The Romans have always been like this. They liked the triumphal ceremonies of war and did not like reading books. After they conquered Greece, those Greek scholars became their "teachers."

  These "teachers" are different from the teachers in the East. They are like Greek sculptures, they are looted trophies.

Slaves were about to educate their masters. Some educated Romans began to realize their barbarism and ignorance. For this reason, they hated the developed city-state civilization in Greece. They burned the flowery Corinth to scorched earth and burned its artworks and treasures. All the Greeks who went to Rome and deported them to Rome to earn a living. On the other hand, the ruler invited the Greek masters or did not hesitate to travel across the sea to seek advice. The Greek prisoners of war and the cultural figures in the hostages became the advisers and teachers of the Roman rulers and presided over the forum in Rome. Many rulers and high officials learned from Greek slaves and tutors because they believed that Greek was more beautiful and expressive.

Venice along the Adriatic Sea used to be a remote area. It was not until the fourth century that people began to gather because of fleeing. In other words, in the era of the despicable Helbo, Venice was a good place to hide things, just like Scotland. The cave full of corpses on the remote island of Hemetra in the Hebrides.

  But compared to the gloomy, green-lit cave, Hypor's cave is a "sun cave", and no one can associate it with black magic.

  The Greek civilization was also derived from the looting of the Egyptian civilization, and the Temple of Amun in Egypt also worshipped the sun god.

Just like Stonehenge, during a specific season, sunlight will pass through a specific gap and hit a specific location. After a specific calculation, the sun will shine on Amon enshrined in the temple at the vernal equinox. On the gold statue.

  Christian Christmas December 25 is the solar calendar. That day was originally a Mithra holiday, and later became the Christian Christmas.

  No one knows the exact date of birth of Jesus, maybe he happened to be on the same day as Mithra’s holiday.

In Mithraism, Mithra represents the "bull killer." If when Minotaur was chasing the sacrificed children in the maze, a group of soldiers killed the Minotaur and saved the children, Compared with the Greeks who dare not face monsters, who is more worthy of admiration?

  Steak is delicious. If you kill a mad cow, it is the instinct of a "wolf" to eat its meat. The problem is that if you eat a cow with mad cow disease, you will also get "mad cow disease" and your brain becomes like a sponge.

Other animals are afraid of fire, but humans are not afraid of it. In Greek mythology, it was Prometheus who stole sky fire. Modern scholars believe that it is because of sky fire that humans have the habit of eating cooked food, and thus began to evolve. Journey, and this "sky fire" was caused by lightning.

   is not just a magnifying glass made of glass, but ice can be used to make fire. As long as the light and focal length are used appropriately, this is easy to understand for modern people, but it is incomprehensible for ancients.

  The light shining in from the entrance of the cave is shining diagonally on the altar. Maybe it can be shining on the altar at noon on another day.

Zoroastrianism introduces religious dualism, presenting the world as a struggle between the good **** Ahura Mazda and the evil **** Angela Manuel, changing the original polytheistic system and turning Ahura Mazda into The only god, other gods handed down from ancient times became angels.

  Wings are decorated on those altars, and Pomona can't tell whether it represents angel wings or Icarus who uses wax wings to fly to the sun in Greek mythology.

  In short, she has a feeling that the seemingly exiting hole is not safe, even though the blue sky and white clouds can be seen through it, freedom seems to be in front of her eyes.

   "Atlantis also sank." Severus said while inspecting the altar, "I really hope that Venice will not become the second Atlantis."

  "Do you think this basilisk is the sea monster in Venice." Pomona asked, "it dug a hole in São Paulo to make a nest."

  Slytherin's old bat stared at death and swept over.

  "Snakes can't make nests, badgers like to dig holes."

   "Oh, is it?" She said with a smirk, "You are so cheeky, so grandly speaking of gaining for nothing."

   "Who was standing there just now, waiting for me to save?" The old Bat also smirked and said.

   "Quack." Cockroaches shouted in protest.

"Have you played that kind of sliding puzzle with one missing piece?" Pomona was too lazy to care about the stingy Slytherin, looking at the trail of the seven-pointed star on the ground, and said, "I want to take away the things from the altar and take the treasure. Also stand on the altar."

   "A life is a treasure? It really is a despicable black wizard." Severus sneered and said, "Who do you think the white wizard used to sacrifice?"

   "Albus is very good at scams by despicable means, maybe no one is sacrificed." Pomona said.

  "Where is the house-elf?" He said coldly, "For the greater good, he can even sacrifice the carefully trained Harry Potter."

   "And himself, he drank the potion alone." Pomona pursed her mouth and said, "Although he is an old fool, he is a kind person..."

"He traveled around the world before he met Grindelwald. At that time, he was not as'kind' as he was later. He hated Muggles." Severus whispered like a snake in the Garden of Eden, his voice reverberating in the cave. There are so many Muggle tourists, with a sacrifice, no one knows if they are missing."

"Do you think Muggles and wizards are equal?" Pomona sneered. "Use your smart brain, Severus. That's the most fascinating part of you. I don't like soldiers because They often stop thinking, but if I meet a man who is smarter and sober than you, I will empathize."

  The face of the old bat stretched out.

"I'm the kind of stupid girl who likes smart male classmates in the class. If he exercises well, it would be perfect." She smirked and said, "Even Sirius's wanted photos are better than you. Don't spend too much time on your appearance Thoughtful."

  "You don't like soldiers?" He twisted his lips and smiled maliciously. "Don't like heroes? You are so bold."

   "I like legends." She remedied.

   "It's too late." Snape said, "Some things need to be considered carefully before you say them. Did you just speak through your brain?"

  She feels she has gotten into trouble.

  Disrespect for soldiers will cause big trouble. How could she just say that she doesn’t like soldiers?
