         The Barony of Raven's Fort is hosting the meeting of the
         Eastern and Western halves of the Roman Empire of 530 ce
         on June 2-4, 1995 ce. The Empress has declared a day of
         games in honour of the visiting Eastern Prelate. There
         are rumours of invading forces gathering to the North.
         
         Heavy weapons fighters will be split into teams for the
         day. Non-fighters can sign up to represent a team in
         several contests of skill - shotput, spear throw, discus 
         and archery; and one of gluttony - melon eating.

         to entries documented to pre - 600 ce.
