Since someone asked a while ago how Latin was pronounced I thought I would post a link to a website with audio files of speakers reciting some famous excerpts of Latin as well as Greek.

My first suggestion is to check out the Greek section just to see how drastically different it sounded from Latin. That pitch accent is trippy. Aristophanes is a must listen.

As far as the Latin - Vergil is a great listen; as is Cicero. Watch out for elision though. However, that first Martial poem... those Romans had a great sense of humor.
