Julius Caesar
The legacy of Julius Caesar is remarkable. Julius Caesar was born Gaius Julius Caesar, in Rome, Italy to a well known and ancient patrician family (a noble family of the ancient Roman Republic, which during the Roman Empire had exclusive rights to the Senate). To more of the present days, we use the name, "Julius Caesar" leaving out Gaius. Caesar is said to have been tall, fair, and well-built, with a rather broad face, dark brown eyes. His health was rough, occasionally he would suffer from sudden comas and a tendency to nightmares which troubled him during the end of his life, but he twice had epileptic fits while on campaign. At the age of 15 his father died, and a few years later he was possibly married to a wealthy young woman named Cossutia.

While sailing to grease for further study he was kidnapped by Cilician pirates and held for ransom. Also at this time there were an unbelievable amount of statutes made of him. E Caesar was to serve his last senate meeting before his departure. After this Sulla died just around 78bc and Caesar returned to Rome.
