I would meet Pyrrhus just before assassinating him. I wouldn't say anything because AFAIK Pyrrhus doesn't speak Hai (Հայերեն). It would be an honour, even though I would only see him alive for 5 minutes.

Unfortunately not very original but…
To go back and see Caesar get assassinated because its a part of history that’s interested me from a very young age and it would be sweet to see it for myself.

I would make a priest tell Antiochos III to put Hannibal in command of his army, and not his fleet...

from Hooahguy for my sig
You mean "How many people would like to meet Jesus?" of "How many people would like to meet Brennus" cos I can tell you now the second experience is an anti-climax.
That's true but its better than my alternative title "If you could go handgliding over one city in Antiquity what would it be?"

I'd like to meet, and talk to, Jesus, Caesar, Surena, Arminius, and quite possibly many others. Also I'd ask Arshak for tips on getting rid of a hostile occupation force.

Better go learn some Aramaic if you want to go East; it was Jesus' main language. Surena might've spoken it as well.
You might want to know this if you meet Yashua:
Abûn dbashmâyya, netqâdîsh shmak. Têtê malkûtak. Nehwê tsebyânak aikâna bashmâyya 'ap b'arâ. Hab lân lakhmâ sûnqanân yaumâna. Wa shbûq lân khaubên wa khtahên aikâna 'ap khnân shboqen l'khayabên.

Archimedes, well, I would like to discuss maths and engineering with him, because he did many amazing things, while the amount of available information and knowledge to build on was low. I am also curious, if he really constructed his famous "solarbeam" weapon.
And perhaps some philosopher, but I just found out, that I can't recall any famous philosopher from EB timeframe.
There are also many other possibilities, even not famous people, but even some random citizen of Rome/ random Celtic druid...

Just don't tell Caesar why you're there.
I'd like to meet Plato. Just to ask him to not use dialogues to explain his ideas. All it does is leave me wanting to argue with men who have been dead for thousands of years because they never included a counter-argument that was worth a damn.
As for hanggliding over a city; surely Knossos.
Well, Plato's a bit out of the EB time period, but I suppose I went outside of the boundaries by including Alexander. I guess I'll add Socrates to my list as well. It'd be awesome to have a glass of wine with him - either that or extremely frustrating. -M

I've never killed a man and do not wish to do so ever, at all. But!, if I ever did, it would have to be a very important person. I find Pyrrhus to be one of the most important people of the EB era. If I was teleported to the Near East, I'd just head over to the royal palace and have some wine with old man Yervand. Probably marry a daughter of his and just chillax. Buy some land and start my own Armenian wine business.

Can I back and time and kill the fore father of the Armenians to save Pyrrhus? :-D
Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.

I would talk to either Sulla to ask him to explain his complicated personality or politics (provided they are on good terms with us, that might get me proscribed if not), or I would seek advice from Ovid.
I'd like to meat Cleopatra.... LOL sorry I couldn't help it!
We love you because you died and resurrected to save us...

Well, Pyrrhus is importent indeed... but speaking about contribution to the world and popularity, Jesus kick his asses (and everybodu elses) 10 times! As for myself, hmmm, I'd go to the day of Caesar's assassination, Kill Brutus, then receive a great reward from caesar to have protected him! Before that, though as any sweboz dedicated fan that respect himself, I'd go meet Ariovistus, have a mug of mead with him while talking about whatever under the shade of a dense forest!

Well, than you have to learn about him quickly, as you will have hard times understanding what the (...) was happening during middle ages in your history study. Perhaps that's the reason why you skipped the Order of Saint John essay.![]()
