The bible and ancient history.
#19
RE: The bible and ancient history.
I'm not aware of any great tradition of stoning in Roman history. Vestal Virgins who messed up the virgin part were buried alive. IN the early days, before the Romans learned that public executions in the arena were great fun, they would toss various classes of criminals off the Tarpeian Rock on the Capitoline Hill. Again, before they learned about the fun factor, the Romans traditionally strangled the malefactor, a lovely tradition which remained part of the Roman Triumph for quite some time. Vercingetorix, for example, was ritually strangled as the denouement of Caesar's triumph in 46 BC.
