To celebrate the start of July, Planet Science has come up with a quiz all about Julius Caeser. If you’ve heard the name before then you’ll know he was the most famous Roman leader of all. “So what’s this got to do with July?” I can hear you all shouting at your computer screens! Well, it’s quite simple really – the month of July is named after Julius Caeser!

Now I can hear you shouting: “What’s he got to do with science?” The answer to that question is that the Romans were big on science, engineering and maths. So we put the month of July and the Romans together and came up with this quiz:

Also up for grabs this month are five copies of Scholastic’s ‘Rotten Romans’ book by Terry Deary. ‘Rotten Romans’ features beastly battles, deadly doctoring, sick science and marvellous myths – you can even find out how to tell the future using a dead chicken! It’s packed with quizzes, sketches, music and jokes, as well as mini-dramas and real life re-enactments – telling you the kind of foul facts you’ve always wanted to know!

To be in with a chance of winning, all you have to do is email your name, age and address to: Hay-Wire.Clubhouse@nesta.org.uk All entries will be entered into a draw and the winner will be chosen at random on Thursday 28^th July at 5pm.
