- Sortes_Homericae abstract "The Sortes Homericae (Latin - Homeric lots) was the practice of drawing a random sentence or line from the works of Homer (usually the Iliad) to answer a question or predict the future. Socrates is recorded as doing so in prison to determine the day of his execution, and the practice even occurred in the Renaissance era. In the Roman world it co-existed with the various forms of the sortes, such as the Sortes Virgilianae and their Christian successor the Sortes Sanctorum.Brutus used this practice, which informed him Pompey would lose the battle of Pharsalus. The emperor Marcus Opellius Macrinus is also known to have used it, drawing Iliad 8, 102-3, informing him he would not last long on the imperial throne.".
