456 B.C. -- Herodotus recites his Histories at Athens (according to one reckoning; supposedly on the 12th of Hekatombaion)
17 B.C. -- venatio, ludi circenses, lusus Troiae (the latter was a sort of precision equestrian drill put on by the sons of the rich and famous, probably a lot like the RCMP's Musical Ride)
86 A.D. -- ludi Capitolini (day 7)
