Where was Julius Cesar killed?
Gaius Julius Caesar, dictator of the Roman Republic, was assassinated in the Theatre of Pompey in Rome on the ides of March (March 15), 44 BCE, by as many as 60 or so senators who feared that Caesar plotted to overthrow the Republic and become king.
The great irony of Caesar's murder is that, after his death, the Republic was plunged into civil war, eventually overthrown and replaced by the Empire, headed by the first emperor, Caesar Augustus (formerly Octavius, Caesar's adopted heir). Another great irony is that he died at the foot of the statue of Pompey: the man who had opposed him, and who Caesar had fought and beaten in several battles before Pompey was murdered by the Egyptians.

Some examples of agnomina are: Aculeo (prickly, unfriendly), Ahala (underarm pit), Albinus (pale, white skinned), Ambustus (scolded), Aquilinus (eagle-like), Barbatus (bearded), Brutus (dullard), Caecus (blind), Calidus (hot-headed), Caninus (dog-like) Cordus (born late), Corvus (crow), Crispus (curly-haired), Crassus (fat) ,Cunctator (procastinator), Curvus (stooping), Imperious (domineering), Laterensis (from the hill side), Lentulus (slow), Lepidus (charming), Paullus (small), Postumus (born after the father's death), Pictor (painter), Rufus (ginger-haired), Severus (strict), Scaevola (left-handed), Superbus (haughty), Varus (bow-legged).
