Title: Julius Caesar's De Bello"I am reading Julius Caesar's book, De Bello. 📚"
Title: Caesar's Message to Cicero"Caesar often communicated with Cicero through letters, which were delivered by trusted messengers. These letters were written in Latin and often contained strategic military information, political updates, and personal reflections. To ensure the confidentiality of his messages, Caesar sometimes used a cipher known as the Caesar Cipher. This simple encryption technique involved shifting the letters of the alphabet by a fixed number of places. The correspondence between Caesar and Cicero provides valuable insights into the political dynamics and personal relationships of the Roman Republic. ✉️🔑"
