The Romans didn't pronounce it as 'S', they pronounced it as 'K'. In English, it's pronounced as 'S' because English pronunciation makes approximately no sense compared to most other languages.

Does cabaret have a hard or soft consonant sound for a beginning letter?
The first letter in "cabaret" is a hard "c", pronounced the same as the letter "k". A soft "c" sound is like the letter "s", and generally occurs only when the "c" is followed by the vowels "e" or "i" (or "y" acting as a vowel). For example, the "c"s in "center" and "citation" are soft. The "c"s in "cast", "corner", and "cupcake" are hard.
