To answer your question about the "why are they eating without napkins": I asked my husband's aunt, who is an ordained nun, she informed me that it was to "mimic the haste and austerity of the Last Supper", which is also why it was specifically done on Good Friday, bc the Last Supper was supposedly held on a Friday.

Your quote regarding the mutton eaten by the Franks says the mutton needs <i>roasted</i> kept far enough away from the flame so that the meat <i>seems</i> almost as if it were steamed. The author also remarks that if the meat is too close to the flame it can be charred on the outside and nearly raw on the inside. So, the mutton would have been roasted "low and slow."

Roman gladiators did not always fight to the death. Because they were highly trained and extremely expensive to maintain, owners (lanistae) generally avoided fights ending in death to protect their investments. Referees monitored matches, and a defeated fighter could surrender to save their life, with only about 10% to 20% of matches ending fatally.

interesting note/ there's a theory that Hannibal and carthage in general weren't all that. Rome had a habit of talking up their enemies to make themselves seem even better for beating them
