How did the Romans take an oath
#16
I bet it is true....... :?

After all, the oath we take in the XIIIIth was concieved in the olden days of 'No Sex, Please, we're British'! The '70's.

So tha grabbing of Testicles = testify, and
Sacrametum = Sac's...

these images would have been too inconcievable the the stiff upper lips of that ancient era! Tongue P P


Ducks and runs looooooooong, long distance for cover!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.

Don't we have at least the late Roman christianized version?
