“The military leaders were chosen without regard to their descent, solely according to their ability. They had little power and had to rely on the force of example. The actual disciplinary authority in the army lay with the priests. The real power was in the hands of the assembly of the people. The king or the chief of the tribe presides; the people decide: \u201cNo\u201d by murmurs; \u201cYes\u201d by acclamation and clash of weapons. The assembly of the people is at the same time an assembly of justice; here complaints are brought forward and decided and sentences of death passed, the only capital crimes being cowardice, treason against the people, and unnatural lust. Also in the gentes and other subdivisions of the tribe all the members sit in judgment under the presidency of the chief can only have guided the proceedings and put questions; the actual verdict was always given by the whole community.” – Friedrich Engels, Origins of Family, Private Property and the State<\/a>.<\/em> <\/p>\n Class Wargames will be hosting a collective playing of Falling Sky: the Gallic Revolt against Caesar<\/em>.<\/p>\n Entrance free.
