Brutus

I was familiar with Brutus, the one featured in Shakespeare's classic line "Et tu, Brute." But what I didn't know was that there were two Brutuses who took part in Caeser's assassination, Brutus Albinus and Brutus Marcus. But only one Brutus (Marcus) gets all the headlines. That poor sap, Brutus Albinus, also a protoge of Caeser's, needed a better publicist. "Et tu, Brute. Et tu, Brute, too?" I can't be certain, but the forgotten Brutus seems to have been more powerful than one at the time. After the assassination, this Brutus led an army against Antony; he lost, and was killed by a Gallic chieftain on Antony's orders. Ignored by history or killed by a Frenchman- I'm not sure which is sadder.
