Timeline of Roman Monarchy and Republic
Find the date for each event below and make a timeline of the Roman Monarchy and Republic.
You’ll probably want to use centuries (100 years) as divisions. Make sure that it is clear, neat,
interesting and colorful. You should choose specific event to illustrate in some way, using
drawings, clipart or pictures cut from magazines. The pictures may be symbolic, e.g. crossed
swords for a war. Be creative! Use 4 or more pieces of letter size paper taped together so the
timeline will fit in your notebook and unfold accordian style.
