naumachia - 2024 ARCADIA - Buzzpoints App

Question

A crowd crush occurred at one of Julius Caesar’s triumphs while he spectated one of these events at the Campus Martius. For 10 points each:

[10h] Name these events that were held in the Flavian Amphitheater until the installation of the hypogeum. The cry “Those who are about to die salute you” greeted Claudius during one of these events at the Fucine Lake.

ANSWER: naumachia [or naumachiae; accept mock naval battles, mock sea battles, or staging a naval battle; accept gladiatorial naval battles; prompt on naval battles; prompt on gladiator fights]

[10m] This emperor allegedly prevented spectators from changing their clothes after a surprise storm struck his naumachiae. The possible enmity between Agricola and this last Flavian emperor likely contributed to Tacitus’s less-than-flattering portrayal of him.

ANSWER: Domitian [or Titus Flavius Caesar Domitianus Augustus]

[10e] Philip the Arab held a naumachia on this body of water during the Secular Games. This river flows through Rome and meets the sea at the port city of Ostia.

ANSWER: Tiber River [or Fiume Tevere, or Flumen Tiberis]
