(13,616 posts)in the ancient period, there is not much of a way to get modern historical evidence. We know for example, Julis caesar wrote a book called "the war in Gaul", ever fiurst year Latin student reads it, going "Omnes gallia in partes tres, primiim horum sunt Belgae" (trans; "All of Gaul is divided into three parts, first among them are the belgians) However, it is know that we wrote many books that were destroyed by Augustus. Supposedly, they were Homoerotic love poems (Ceasar often bragged he could make be any woman;s husband, and make any man his wife.) Now we know that Augustus read books before he burned them, becaus ehis friend Virgil asked him tpo bnurn the aenied, another poem that everybody who gets an education runs into. So, here is Julis Caesar, one of the mosr dociumented people in history, and yet, ther eis this huge void as to whether he was gay or not.
