Thursday's Class 4/10/14

     Old Roman soldiers weren't just in the army for pay they were in it because they wanted to defend their civilization.  Infantry are the guys who marched on their feet, or ground troops.  The cavalry are the guys who marched on horseback.  First Punic war was fought over Sicily and Rome won.  Rome was the winner of all three Punic wars.  Every Punic war was fought between Rome and Carthage.  Roman war heroes weren't worshiped when they got home.  Latifundia is a Latin word for great estate.
