A Day In The Colosseum Part 2!
Person Who are you? (name, job, class of society, any other details) Ulfric Baylor-Titan, Engineer, normal On a regular day what would you be doing? Working, doing whatever I need to do. Where do you live? (type of house, what it looks like, etc.) In a normal house; has a stone exterior and wooden and stone roof. What will you wear to the games? (type of clothes, what they look like, made of) Normal clothes; rags; leather
Colosseum What will you see as you enter the colosseum? (the structure, materials, architectural details, the outside, the inside, the people) A circle, stone, white outside, dirt circle in the middle, about 45,000 people to 70,000 people. Where will you sit in the colosseum? (why, who is around you) I wouldn’t have a specific spot to sit, because I am not special, and random people would be around me.
The Games What did you see? (describe the spectacle of the games from your perspective- your character) I would see the gladiators fight animals and each other.
My Experience What did you like or dislike about your experience at the colosseum? I would like all the killing going on. What did you like or dislike about the Colosseum structure? I liked that it could cave in the gladiators for they can’t run away or back out. If you could be another person at the games, who would you be? Why? I would be Emperor Titus because he gets a special spot, and he rules everyone. If you were the Emperor of Ancient Rome and could make one new law, what would it be? Why? It would be that everyone has to learn how to fight because it could be for self-defense.
GladiatorGlory Part 3!
The Story • I was captured in a battle when the Romans invaded Gallia. • It felt weird, knowing I would probably never come home again. • It was a very long trip to Rome. It was hot, and we were treated well. Not great, but not bad. • I felt angry since I was being sold like property. • At gladiator school, not everyone spoke the same language, and it was hard. I was whipped a lot because I would try to take a short break. There was all types of gladiators there.
An Even Longer Story • I became in Essedarius, which is a gladiator on a chariot. • I wore chain mail armor. • I died in battle, and my dead body was dragged off the field. • The sensation of fighting was crazy! The noise was distracting me, the emperor watching me made me nervous, and the few seconds before death made me calm. • I asked the emperor to ask the crowd, and the crowd wanted me to die.
Myths and More Part 4!
The Midas Touch The Midas Touch is a myth about a king who wished for everything he touched to be turned into gold. King Midas was informed that a satyr was in his garden. He recognized the satyr as one of Dionysus’s, and let him go. Dionysus granted one of Midas’s wishes to say thank you, and Midas wished for everything he touched to turn into gold. He liked this perk until he tried to hug his daughter, in turned his into a golden statue of herself. Dionysus let Midas take back his wish.
Myth of Hercules Hercules is the son of Jupiter and Juno. He is half god, half mortal. Juno was always jealous of Hercules, and tried to kill him while he was young. But, he was very strong as a baby, and survived. Jupiter sent Hercules to live with a normal earth family to protect him from Juno. Hercules’ mortal father told him that he was part god. To gain immortality, he had 12 tasks he had to complete. It was designed by his mother and hateful cousin, to kill him. But, Hercules survived, and completed the 12 tasks.
My Personal Review I think that the myths about Midas Touch and Hercules were entertaining and informative. Midas Touch shows what happens when you wish for something that could do things to others, and Hercules is about a half god, half mortal, that gained immortality by completing 12 tasks.
