"Things done" is the English translation of the Latin phrase "Res gestae," which in turn is taken from the title of the funerary inscription for the Roman Emperor Augustus, "Res Gestae Divi Augusti." The "Res Gestae" elaborates upon 35 memorable deeds ("things done") performed by the Emperor during his life.
