Answer to 7: The Florentine statesman was Lorenzo de' Medici (the Magnificent)

It couldn't possibly be Nostradamus. He wasn't even born till the 1500s.

stormerne · May 6, 2001

OK, here's a clue for number 8: the man who wrote this was both a historian and a Roman senator, and he eventually became "Governor of Asia".

We don't need to close "Cumulative Quiz" threads. I think they are interesting.

But those word association threads can be closed... at least we have tried the word association game.
