@lifeinthepastlane_: One ancient Roman woman’s honour sparked a revolution. Lucretia, a noblewoman of early Rome, took her own life after being assaulted by the king’s son, an act that ignited the fury of the Roman people. Her death wasn’t just a tragedy, it was the catalyst for the fall of the monarchy and the birth of the Republic. A story of virtue, violence, and vengeance that still echoes through history. #Rome #history #ancientrome #ancienthistory #legend #story #interesting #ancient #romanempire #historytok
All because of Lucretia!? You mean all because of Tarquinius

This story was written retroactively by historians and no evidence is found about it.

The Empire never died. The Pope occupies the same office of Pontifex Maximus that Julius Caesar and all subsequent Caesars held.

What a terrible shame but I am glad that her husband tried to explain to her that she was a victim.

I hate this story, the idea of her value only being her virtue is horrible.

According to Livy. Writing some 200 years later, probably some kind of commentary on Augustus' proposed marriage laws. Definitely showing Roman attitudes towards women's sexuality in their own time.

The Roman Empire fell over a long period of time because of poor leadership by men.

If one can imagine how the downfall of Rome could have been avoided, if he would pass the gas violently, while passing the slaves thus waking them up, who would then prevented him assaulting Lucrezia

Sextus is the reason, not her.

the grapist was named Sextus? if this is true, a man's unjust entitlement to a woman's body and beauty caused the downfall of Rome, like red pillers, today, voting for fascism.
