The original Latin was: Quam mihi mittebas Saturni tempore lancem, / Misisti dominae, Sextiliane, tuae; / Et quam donabas dictis a Marte Kalendis, / De nostra prasina est synthesis empta toga. / Iam constare tibi gratis coepere puellae: / Muneribus futuis, Sextiliane, meis. i can't figure out if there was a special pun here or anything, but it seems to me that this is an ancient version of "Robbing Peter to pay Paul." the stuff that Sextilianus used to spend on Martial now goes to his mistress instead.

One thing I came across in my Latin class was that perhaps the Romans didn't bet actual nuts in their betting dice games during the Saturnalia, a point that came up as we were translating Martial's epigrams actually, which is a nice coincidence to how this video ended. Nux did mean walnut, yes, but it was also used as a metaphors for "thing of little/no value", being used that way by Martial; the theory my teacher mentioned was that perhaps some people used some of those crappy gifts they kept around to give to random visitors in their bets; there is slim evidence for this, since it comes almost entirely from Martial using the metaphor of "nuts" as something of little value to refer to the presents during Saturnalia, but well, it is a possibility and it kinda makes more sense; then again lots of things about Saturnalia make little sense so who knows xD

how tf Yule is ancestor of Christmas, the scandinavians only had contact to Christian Europe by the 8th century and Christmas is celebrated since at least 354 and some people might have passed one or other aspect of Saturnalia to the day of Christmas (like the exchange of gifts) to replace saturnalia after it ended, but it doesn't really mean saturnalia is "ancestor" to Christmas, its not even on the same day.

Kronia,the celebration was held in ancient Greece in honor of Titan Kronos and Titaness Rhea. it took place on the night of the 12th day of Hecatombaion,(at the beginning of summer). On the day of the feast the slaves had a holiday, they could sit at the same table with their masters and in general they had more freedom, in memory of the Golden Age of the human race, when there was no slavery and heavy work. From the adoption of the celebration by the Romans as Saturnalia, in honor of the Roman Saturn ,Kronia became a noisy festival and days of debauchery.

the way you said "earthenware vases" it sounds like you are the kind of person that would not appreciate such a humble gift from Marshall!

Such a pleasant episode! The Christmas just around the corner, Saturnalia as the main topic and of course that melancholic music in the background 8)

Ok THIS. This is a holiday we need to bring back. I mean Lupercalia would be great, but can you imagine modern-day senators, congressmen, business moguls, and religous leaders wearing casual attire and just chilling out with the plebs. What a mood. A reminder we're all just citizens governing ourselves. The Romans sure knew how to party.

That's not a statue of Saturn; it represents the Nile. The Sphinx it leans on was cropped out. Nick pick aside, I love this channel
