That's a tough old quiz. Never heard of a Peon, Taro or the Rape of the sabine women. Didn't know Penn was the founder of Philadelphia either. You learn something new every day. No doubt i'll have forgotten it by the time I get asked that question again though. Lol

Thank you, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers for giving me the Sabine women answer. Pennsylvania was named for Penn, so it followed that he might have something to do with the city as well.

Huh. Never knew 'peon' was associated with Latin America specifically.

Oh my god... I kept typing "pantheon" for the famous building, and I couldn't believe that it wasn't one of the other answers. I couldn't figure out where the R went. -_-

I tried Pantheon and Petra just looking at the 9 letters, maybe they can be used to replace some 'less historical' answers?

Petra, Opera or Heart are history related five-letter words that may substitute some of the weaker, less specific options in the test. (hope, harp,...)

I thought for sure the Pantheon would be thrown in here as the two are so often confused.

'Medici' wasn't a patron of the arts, as Medici is a family name, and there are many prominent Medici throughout Italian history, some of whom were patrons, some of whom were not.
