Get the right idea: Ben Hur!
Until this moment, I have posted three messages on circuses. Those of Caesarea, Tarraco and Aphrodisias, and will add more in the future. To learn more about chariot racing? Watch Ben Hur, 1959! When a Jewish prince is betrayed and sent into slavery by a Roman friend, he regains his freedom and comes back for revenge. A movie by William Wyler, with our rifle friend Charlton Heston and Jack Hawkins (remember the movie: 'Poppies are also flowers',... ?). Winning 10 (ten [sic!]) Oscars! Enjoy!
