Strange omens, plague, occult religious rites. King Tullus Hostilius' reign collapses in something like supernatural madness. The great Ancus Marcius takes over, but is finally deceived by a rich, mysterious newcomer to Rome: Lucius Tarquinius Priscus. Join Jonathan and Ryan as they outline how the first of the Tarquins takes the throne after first disinheriting his own nephew, and then effectively disinheriting the sons of Ancus Marcius, whom Lucius was bound to protect.Livy's Ab Urbe Condita: https://amzn.to/3gYwtbhMachiavelli's Discourses on Livy: https://amzn.to/3NtNBSjRene Girard's I See Satan Fall Like Lightning: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9781570753190Philostratus' Life of Apollonius of Tyana: https://amzn.to/3qgEcWNFustel de Coulanges's La Cité Antique (French): https://amzn.to/3yzATuZFustel de Coulanges's The Ancient City (English): https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780648690542New Humanists is brought to you by the Ancient Language Institute: https://ancientlanguage.com/Links may have referral codes, which earn us a commission at no additional cost to you.

It's time for Rome's fourth King, Ancus Marcius to come into the spotlight. I discuss what he did and didn't build as well as play detective in a murder mystery. Spoiler alert, he probably did it. Music by Brakhage (Le Vrai Instrumental)
Rome's fourth king, Ancus Marcius, is a much more rounded character in the traditional Roman narrative. During his reign, he took on the characteristics of his predecessors and combined them to good effect. In this episode, we will follow the life of Ancus and look at the ways in which he transformed Rome into a pious regional power.Follow Mare Nostrum on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MarePodcast
Het jaar is 575 v. Chr en Servius Tullius, een slavenzoon, neemt de troon van Lucius Tarquinius Priscus over nadat deze is overleden door een plot van de zoons van Ancus Marcius. Servius is de laatste goede koning van Rome en hij bedenkt de Census welke door de hele Romeinse geschiedenis gebruikt zal worden, zij het in verschillende vormen. De poging om niet te eindigen als zijn voorganger, vermoord door de zoons van de vorige koning, blijken vruchteloos en ook Servius eindigt bebloed voor de deuren van het Senaatshuis. Hij mocht 44 jaren heersen over de Romeinen en stierf in 535 v. Chr. Hier vind je de link naar de website van deze aflevering.Hier vind je de link naar de facebookpagina.
With Ancus Marcius we have the reintroduction of a good king. How long will this last? Are they here to stay?
Het koningschap van Tullus Hostilius komt aan een merkwaardig eind. Koning Ancus Marcius wordt verkozen als vierde koning van de Romeinen en zijn heerschappij overtreft die van Romulus, Numa Pompilius en Tullus Hostilius. De Latijnen worden verslagen en de havenstad Ostia, welke de Romeinen een grote toekomst zal geven, wordt op bevel van Ancus aangelegd. De opvolger van Ancus, Lucius Tarquinius Priscus maakt zijn reis uit zijn vaderland Etrurië naar Rome en hier eenmaal hier maakt hij snel naam voor zichzelf. Hij zal uiteindelijk door zijn torenhoge ambitie ontpoppen tot de vijfde koning van Rome. Hij introduceert hiermee het koningshuis dat in de volgende aflevering de aanleiding zullen vorm tot de vorming van de Republiek Rome.

So, first a fighter. Then a pacifist. Then another fighter, and finally another pacifist who saw himself forced to wage wars, and ultimately did just that. And so, today we are officially starting the second part of the tale of the Kings, because the three kings we haven’t seen yet, they all belong to one—the same family. The Tarquins. And first among these is Lucius Tarquinius Priscus. Then, we have Servius Tullius, an adopted son of Tarquin the Elder, and lastly, the real son of Tarquin, whom history named Tarquin the Proud, who took the throne by force, and who ended up being such a bad king, that the Romans kicked him out of Rome, and decided never again to have kings. […] Let’s quickly mention here, that this was not out of the customary, since kings often sat at the forum, and acted as judges in people’s differences and disputes. But then, when the king, too, was going to take his seat, one of the guys, ran to the king, and took out an axe that he had hidden in his robes. In a single stroke, he lodged the axe, blade-deep, into the head of the king. […]
Partial Transcription http://www.thetaleofrome.com/rome-007 Hello, this is Abel, in Beijing, China. Welcome to my podcast. The Tale of Rome, Episode 7 — Ancus Marcius Founds Ostia. Last week we saw the life and death of Tullus Hostilius, the third king of Rome, and we also saw how Rome itself became a synonym of war. In fact, Rome—again, became all the things nobody wanted to have in a neighbor. This week’s episode deals with the fourth king of Rome, a man named Ancus Marcius. Ancus Marcius was a man with many different and sometimes contrasting aspects. For one, he was the son of Numa Marcius, who in turn was elected by Numa Pompilius to become Rome’s very first Pontifex Maximus, which we talked about in Episode five. […] We also cannot reliably assess all these events, and their dates. Anecdotes, above all, are to be read as a tale, and rather than taking them as pure facts, they serve the purpose of answering questions of the origins of Rome to the romans that lived centuries later, as well as trying to teach morals. As a perfect example of these quite incredible mess-ups with dates, we have that Numa Pompilius, the now well-known second king of Rome, was born on April 21st of the year 753 BC, which just so happens to be the day Rome was founded. Come on! Don’t make me laugh! The other thing that we can kind of be sure of, is that one of the major jobs Ancus Marcius had to do, was to transcribe all those documents left by Numa Pompilius, about the religious ceremonies of Rome, since the third king of Rome, Tullus Hostilius ignored that job completely. […]
In the wake of violence, and after an appropriate period of an interrex, Ancus Marcius is selected as the king to follow on from Tullus Hostilius. Listen to the dulcet tones of the Doctors' voices as they explore the life, reign, and interesting developments *sometimes* attributed to this ruler.
This week we cover the first three of Romulus's successors to the throne: Numa Pompulius, Tullus Hostilius and Ancus Marcius, who they were and what affect they had on the evolution Roman law and culture.
