Adrian Murdoch continues the series with someone I always considered rather *in*commodious:

• #17 Commodus: Emperors of Rome

ante diem vii kalendas maias

• Robigalia — an ancient agricultural festival designed to appease the numen Robigo/Robigus who caused mildew
• 404 B.C. — Athens surrenders to Sparta, bringing the Peloponnesian War to an end (by one reckoning)
• 68 A.D. — martyrdom of Mark the Evangelist
• 1940 — death of Wilhelm Dorpfeld (excavator of Tiryns)
