	Excellent quiz (I have no idea how I remembered some of the more obscure ones, but forgot Sophocles...)! One thing, though - Plutarch, although he lived during the Roman era, wrote in Greek.

	Both Sophocles and Euripides wrote a play called Electra.

	The quiz is very good, in and of itself, but I for one would like it better if you could type the original names instead of the English variant, e.g. Horatius instead of Horace, or Aiskhylos instead of Aeschylus.

	Heard a talk about Longus at a conference today. I saw Daphnis and Chloe and went "Oh! Achilles Tatius!" When that was wrong I went "Oh! The Other Guy!"

	I think this would be much more interesting if we had to put the names with the correct work, instead of just naming classical authors.

	I agree with Vasiliy...I tried to put in "Vergilius" and it didnt take it.
