This Day in Ancient History
On this day, in 109 A.D. -- the Emperor Trajan stages a naumachia, or staged sea-fight. Taking place three day before the ides, it is unclear, to me at least, if this was a part of the Dacian triumph or part of the festival of the Plebian games or just something Trajan wanted to do.
