Re: Maecenas
Well, I've dabbled and can't find out where Gaius Cilnius got his Maecenas. Everywhere I look it's the same story, they'll tell me the word comes from his name, but not whence the name itself. It may be Etruscan, though. Maybe someone else will have better luck?
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
