Hi, yes, I studied a Classics degree in the UK a decade or so ago, and now I'm Head of Classics at a London school. Would love to see more Classics-based videos, if you're planning them!

+Mattys Modern Life Yes, but I had to use a ton of references. Mostly it’s me posed in those mosaics that I drew over with my ipad. I also incorporated elements from real ancient mosaics and art work. I’ve referenced them in the description, so you can see how I incorporated them. I’m not particularly good at drawing, but I’ve tried to make my limitations part of my style. It just takes a long time to make though, that and a full time job means I can’t release videos very often. So you never know, look at what you can do and see how you can use it to create your own style. It takes more effort than it does innate talent. Thanks for watching!

This channel deserves my money.

I know you use after effects for complex animwtions, but what do you use premire pro for? Shouldn't after effects be able to do everything for this video?

🇮🇹😉LEGEND AND REALITY The name Roma derives from the Etruscan name Ruma , an ancient goddess who had the ficus ruminalis as an attribute , sacred because the not yet ripe fig has a liquid similar to milk. The Pythagoreans also worshiped the fig fruit they carried in procession. In fact, a fig tree was perpetually at the foot of the Palatine. In short, the first Rome of the seven kings was above all Etruscan. The legend tells that Romulus and Remus were suckled under the fig tree, in reality the suckling fig comes from the Goddess Ruma to whom a small temple was dedicated next to the fig. Ruma or Rumina was the Etruscan-Roman goddess of infant feeding, to whom only libations of milk were dedicated. The name Ruma in fact means " breast"and, like so many Etruscan names, turning into Latin they transform the" u "into" o "like the word" rumax "which becomes" romanus "in Latin. Thus Ruma becomes Rome. The legend tells that the two twins Romulus and Remus, abandoned in a basket on the Tiber river, they were suckled by a she-wolf who will in fact be the symbol of Rome. But the Goddess Lupa was also an ancient divinity, later assimilated to Acca Larentia, who was not a woman but the She-Wolf Goddess. In rites the priestesses practiced sacred prostitution, or "hierodulia" imitating the verse of the she-wolf. On the other hand, the goddess of Etruscan fertility "Feronia", venerated at the foot of Mount Soratte, in Lucus Feroniae, by Latini, Sabini and Falisci, was a she-wolf goddess. In ancient Rome, the derogatory term "she-wolf" remained to indicate a prostitute, the term "brothel" for brothels and the cry of the wolf that Roman prostitutes, no longer sacred, made to lure patrons. Acca Larentia was therefore not a woman, as the patriarchate tells, but a goddess, in fact the Larentalia were celebrated in Rome on 23 December, and Augustus then ordered that the party be performed twice a year. Akka in Sancrito means "mother". Therefore Acca Larenzia was the Mater Larum or " Mother of the Lares ", and the Lares were the patron ancestors for the Romans, including Romulus and Remus of course. In fact, during the Laurentalia, sacrifices were offered to the Lares, cult of Etruscan origin, the spirits of the ancestors, who protected the gens, the extended family nucleus. More important than the family was in fact for the Roman the Gens from which he came, the one that could give prestige and fame, as well as protection. In fact it came even before the proper name: Julius Caesar belonged to the illustrious Gens Iulia (Giulia). In the land of the Sabines, a Goddess Larenta, or Larunda, the "Dea Muta" of the world of the dead, or rather of the ancestors, was worshiped.

Romulus and Jesus both share this magical story of talking to a few chosen after their death? The blood thirsty people that follow them are both from Italy and speak Latin? (Italian is the closest surviving variant of that language). What other common feature these two artistic creation share? It is almost sure than Jesus was a fiction like James Bond, Robin Hood, etc.

When I was in high school, I started to get interested in Greek and Roman mythology and history. And I think I got the idea after Gladiator came out. I found the scene kind of funny when Maximus lists off his names, so I made my name sound Roman for fun, and used it online and such. I dislike naming things, so I stuck with Jimiticus for the channel. It's pronounced Jim - it - icus (short 'i' on 'icus' like you pronounce the 'i' in 'it')

That is true. I always end up hating names I come up with for stuff, and I didn't want to be annoyed long term. I've used Jimiticus for close to twenty years and I'm still fine with it. Maybe I should actually say it in a video. At least it's not the struggle Kurzgesagt had to deal with :)
