Everyone's talking about #Greeks vs #Romans, #Octavian vs #Antony (Barbie vs Oppenheimer??)
but we need to address the clash between "mugitus" and "ululatus" to be the best onomatopoeic word in #Latin
A breakdown of the conflict:
mugitus: mooooo
ululatus: ulululu

It's about the battle between the duty of the gods and the will of men, the vain mortal struggle for glory and honour, and the ballad of the wine-dark sea, encompassing all things.
