It looks so awkward and yet so realistic. Those soldiers have no beef with him, they didn't want to be there, all they want is serve their time and go home. Maybe their leader wants Brutus imprisioned and unharmed, they don't want to be the fool who killed a potentially valuable hostage. But once the stabbing starts its easy to play along.

Something I just noticed is that Brutus is wearing armor with a 16 pointed star insignia upon it. Talk about awesome attention to detail, damn, that goes right to the belief by some of the older families that they were the survivors of Troy who ended up becoming Mycenae and later Macedon. What superb attention to historical beliefs/details. That insignia is called the Vergina Star and traces back well before Rome. Ironically, and this is just mind blowing to me and would be to any other history buff, the recent discovery of the "Griffin Warrior" tomb also discovered the exact same insignia on that warriors chest plate which dated 3500 BC approx. Don't even get me started on how massive the discovery in that tomb is and what that could mean because my mind is still processing how massive it is as it directly connects to Crete.

Yes, all Patrician families liked to trace their ancestery back to the Trojans and ofc the Gods. For example, gens Julii were said to be decended from a Trojan prince Anaeus and the goddess Venus (who was actually a mortal phonecian princess named Dido, but she was diefied after her death). The Vergina Sun first appeared in Greece in the 7th Century BCE, it was the symbol of the [Macedonian] Argead dynasty (I think Alexander's dynasty?). However, like other symbols, such as the Swastika, it may have had earlier orgins and was adopted by that dynasty. Mycenae, where the Griffin Warrior was found [in Pylos], did not extend as far north as Macedon (but did extend down to Crete); and only the Macedonians considered themselves Greek, the successors to the Myceneans (the Greeks) did not and still don't consider Macedonians to be Greek. The Argead dynasty actually supported Xerxes' in his invasion of Greece and Alexander's father conquered Greece. Anyway, I think Butus wore that symbol because he as born in Macendonia not because an association with or decendance from Trojan refugees who fled to Mycenae (and why would they go there anyway? it was the home of their enemy). Also, Butus was a cognym, his family name was Junius of gens Junia and they were plebians, but later Roman historians left out their plebian origins because their ancestor (the king slayer) was first Consul of Rome and all Consuls back then were supposed to be Patricians.

If only Brutus was actually that courageous. In reality, he ran to the woods, then had his soldiers hold his sword, so he could run into it, effectively dying by suicide. I would never suggest suicide is cowardly. I have people close to me who have died by suicide and they are certainly not cowards. My point is, Brutus did not courageously run into battle. He ran until he could run not more, then took the least painful way out.

You seem to be patient zero. You are quite literally the definition of a coward. Someone who claims to know why others do the things they do, is someone who projects their own motivations on to others. In this case a coward thinks he knows why others do things because he (you) assumes everyone is coward like him (you). You are the very definition of a weak coward.

The Roman idea of suicide is hard for us to understand today. It wasnt about ending his pain or finding an easy way out as with depressed people we may know. Suicide was Brutus's way to face death directly. This was in line with a Roman understanding of honour and dignity, and would have been seen to be a 'good death' likely to meet favour with the Gods. It was a practice somewhat similar to Harakiri among the samurai. Choosing to bring his life to an honourable end instead of running to Rome to continue the campaign elsewhere is indeed a highly courageous decision. Also, not to split hairs but I'm pretty sure running into a sword wasn't "the least painful way out"!

My sister died by suicide. If it came off that way, I did a crappy job of articulating my point. I also just hated the Brutus character (great acting. I hated the actual character, not the man who played it) in that shows, which makes me hate the historical character. So I was somewhat in the moment with the show. I would not have the courage to run into a sword. No way no how.

The fact that the Centurion is the first one there that strikes a Roman senator.....is not a fantastic aspect of leadership.....its the standard practice in the Roman military to defer to your officer.....whats great is that the show included the detail; which is what I hope you meant.

Brutus at least believed that they would restore the Republic, he couldn't see that his mother and most of his colleagues were only interested in revenge (justifiable or otherwise) and maintaining their own power. Or maybe he did (from the way they kept on complaining about plebs, Celts and Gauls being made senators) but felt that the ends justified the means. In any case, they didn't think it through as well as they'd thought they had. Either way, he's the only one of the conspirators that I didn't want to say 'Pompey and Julius were both worth ten of you!' to, though Quintus Pompey would've been one of them.

And there's something very primordial and masculine that's involved here. The old code is to face your enemy and die with a blade in your hand, which has already been blooded. That's the very definition of a great and honorable warrior's death, which assures his prompt entry into Paradise.

I think it depends on type of bows and how much punishment the shields already took. At Carrhae the Parthian composite bows were powerful enough to get through the Roman shields in bits and pieces, and this added up throughout the day till....well, you know how that battle ended. Having said that that doesn't make shields not worth it. That entire cohort got like a few visible casualties, no immediate ones that would incapacitate them aside from maybe the face one. It could have been way worse without the testudo.

@Philipe Assad You need to put a face on that name, if that is your real name, before you create a discussion with a total stranger. That's bullshit that Philippi was his last hope, there are many provinces occupied by ROME, REMEMBER. He could find allies OUTSIDE of ROME. Not everyone supports the Populares, many hated the rule of Gaius Octavius. Out of the 100,000 soldiers committed to Brutus and Cassius, not more than 10,000 soldiers were killed. If Brutus had survived he could have waited for Mark Antony and Octavian to beat each other in the head, DIVIDE and CONQUER. So again, put a face on that profile if you want to keep a good discussion. It's better to see eye to eye on the matter. Otherwise, you're just being a troll. Just a random dick trying to pick on a comment. Let's talk History. Meet me on Zoom, Zhumu, Skype, QQ International, Wechat.

@Philipe Assad I understand your point. Next time please make a more proper introduction. I enjoy educational and stimulating conversations, but I don't take it lightly when someone, especially a stranger without fair introduction would barge in on my thread and make corrections on my personal opinion and research. That for me, for whatever intent or purpose is considered rude. Here's how I do it, listen up: "Thank you for that comment, I understand where you're coming from, but how about this....." OR "Hey how are you, glad to meet another ancient History aficionado, I would love to agree but I think....." Again I always suggest for people that whatever message you are sending, if your approach and choice of words would be the cause of a heated discussion or misunderstanding, then better to not speak, you'll never bring your point across no matter how good your intention may be. Fairness for me is to meet people eye to eye, and to be honest I never deal with people with no profile picture. The only reason I am not a minute away from deleting any comment here on the thread is possibly, and slightly going in the transition of seeing potential. I hope you are not misunderstanding this my friend. I'd hate to lose communication with people of good analysis and research capabilities. Again, whatever the message, I would a tweak and highly suggest an introduction or even better, to bring out good points and not just looking for the error you may see in a comment. You'll see how far that good first impression will take you. And so, we are here now, ready to step in to a next chapter of clearing out the catalyst for misunderstanding congruent to an extra wood to burn that could be miscalculated worse than fire. It would be enjoyable to hear more of the history with sprinkles of rhetoric and I hope lesser assumptions of characteristics between strangers. Hope to see you on zoom. I'm hosting at times with other associates and we insert these discussions during a panel meeting, something to relegate and kill mundanity. Boring to stuff to most, but to Social Science addicts and the obsessed, it's music to the ears. We can start over from there. Hope you can join us.

Interesting how they just look at him for awhile without making a move. I'm guessing that given the difference in social status between most soldiers (plebeians) and aristocrats such as Brutus (patricians), it might have been considered dishonorable or even criminal to immediately start stabbing him. They waited to see what he would do, maybe hoping he'd surrender, and then their CO said fuck it once he starting attacking them

I can only see the incompetent comments about Brutus was bad and foolish and Mark Antoine was a general revenge for Caesar, I can noticed only the younger who don't know much of history. It is like that Brutus and Cassius was bad guys who betrayed Caesar the champion, and do you know why Shakespeare wrote otherwise about the story, and why this movie commemorates these two died heroically in the battlefield, because the history of roman was always in controversial and political. You can see the century from now on during the empire. It will be absolutely disgusting, your guard appointed emperor and the emperor kills great general. Brutus, Cassius, Cicero, Cato and Pompey were also considered the last romans by historian because their attributes tried to maintain the value of roman. Do you know that Cassius was at Syria with Crassus at the battle of Carrhae, he managed to save the rest of the troops back to safety.
