Quirinus: When Romulus, founder of Rome was deified, this was the name he was known by as a god.

This is a good game, Campin Cat.

Can't help kicking myself for not coming up with a similar idea earlier though, as this is one of my specialist fields. I'd have been red hot at this two or three decades ago, but I'm very rusty now, having to dig deep (lol) to come up with stuff....

Yeah, me TOO----I'm rusty, as well!!
