EB quiz

[Brave Brave Sir Robin]

I got about half without help. Couldn't spell viriathus and xanthippos properly though. Also, two handed lance could be either xyston or kontos. Either one works there.

[Ca Putt]

me too(tho I got Xanthippos right but was utterly pissed when it correctet it to Xanthippus !!!!! )

[Tanit]

Yeah, I made that about a year ago and there are a number of problems with it. I'll try making another soon.

Edit:
Here is another one!

Ah shoot, I did it again, I used an 'o' when I meant to use a 'u', I'll have to give that one to you. 8 across is 'Pyrrhos'.

I thought both were accepted spellings?

[Tanit]

Yeah, but 'u' is more commonly known, as with Xanthippus/xanthippos.

[Fluvius Camillus]

Yeah, but 'u' is more commonly known, as with Xanthippus/xanthippos.

Lol if I ever study history it will be EB's fault if I write Krete, Seleukos I Nikator etc.

I did much better at this one, I mistook the Illyrian pirates for Cilicians..

Yeah, but 'u' is more commonly known, as with Xanthippus/xanthippos.

Eww. I hate those latinized spellings of non-Latin words. Overall nice quiz though.
I couldn't figure out what "chickpea" meant. One of the very few English words I haven't yet come across.

[Kikaz]
