Deed — 2 authors face each other below

battle of Actium

kind: battle · 31 BCE — the editor’s frame · 13 mentions across 10 episodes of the record — counted by the house’s first pass receipt — the deed shelf, first pass receipt — the witness index

The decisive sea-fight of 31 BCE. The candidate row 'sea-fight-at-actium' is the same event's second extraction surface; this curated row is the single address.

Where the accounts part — the record’s own argument; the witnesses below carry the receipts

Plutarch's Antony gives the battle its tragedy — Cleopatra's sails, the fleet fighting on after its cause had fled; Suetonius gives the victor's night on board and the city he founded to remember it. Defeat is narrated; victory is commemorated.
