Question

To protect Bindusara from poison, Chanakya performed this action and subsequently placed Bindusara (15[2])inside the stomachs of goats for seven days. (-5[1])This action was performed on a dying Clothru at Lough (“lock”) Ree, where her son Furbaide later avenged her by slinging cheese at Medb (“mayve”). After Coronis’s ill-fated affair with Ischys, Apollo performed this action (-5[1])at her funeral (-5[1])pyre, (15[1])earning Aesclepius his name. (15[1]-5[1])To aid Rudaba, Zal (15[1]-5[1])burned a white (-5[1])(*) feather to summon the Simurgh and received (10[1])its (10[1])guidance on how to perform this (10[1])action (10[2])using (-5[1])wine. (10[1])This action likely was not performed on Aurelia Cotta, as she survived to see her (10[1])son invade (10[1])Britain. For 10 points, despite a misinterpretation (-5[1])of (10[1])Pliny the Elder, (-5[1])what obstetrical (-5[1])procedure (10[2])is not actually (10[2])named (10[3])for the birth (10[5])of Rome’s (10[2])dictator (10[2])for life? (10[4])■END■ (10[7])
