Did Nero Really Fiddle While Rome Burned?

[@chrisicu4236]

Interesting video thanks for creating. Did you say something about Nero ‘…reducing the corn price…’? For some reason I thought corn was introduced to Europe in the sixteenth century.

[@sky.the.infinite]

‘Corn’ was an archaic term for wheat.

Excellent analysis!

Love the fact you used Michael Sheen's version of Nero! Michael Sheen is from my home town but he did play a brilliant Nero, he's an amazing actor 🙂

It is impossible. The violin/fiddle was not invented until around the 11th or 12th century. Nero was emperor in the first century. There was the lyre and we hear about it as far back as 1100BC when King David reigned-and even before

Anyone know the song

Elysium by Hans Zimmer: it’s on the Gladiator movie soundtrack.

I always thought they meant Nero was "fiddling around" (i.e. wasting time) & not actually playing a musical instrument (i.e. the fiddle).

[@JohnHunter-ns4mu]

if he really did play the fiddle (or more accurately the lyre) he probably played something like "fantasma" by vessel. or some other really good piece that would fit well with the destruction of one of the greatest cities that the world had at that time

Michal laughed when King David danced naked😅

Romans didn't have corn either

This reminds me of Anthony Blinken who went to Ukraine yesterday and played Guitar while Ukrainians were slaughetered for Raytheon

A lyre Nero played 35 miles away

The merchants were jealous of one another. Jesus turned over the tables of the money changers.

They fed men who watched their families slaughtered to lions for entertainment.
