In 46 BC, after 12 years away, Julius Caesar finally returned home to Rome.

A lot had changed since he was last there. The entire Roman system had been upended, and he was now the man on top.

To celebrate his homecoming, he did something that had never been done before or since. He didn’t just hold a triumph in his honor; he held FOUR.

For some in Rome, it was the greatest thing they had ever seen. For others, it confirmed their worst fears.

Learn more about Julius Caesar's Quadruple Triumph and the controversy surrounding it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
