    Is the Answer Mamurra?


    Okay, let's break this down a little further.
    A Kleitoris, is a plebian under protection of a patrician.
    plebs = people; the ones who are Roman but not of the nobility (patrician)


    A Kleitoris can get under the tutelage or protection of a patrician by asking for a favour or money and he will take the kleitoris in his clientel. WHich means if he asks you to do something for him, once you are his Client" you cannot say no.

    Ok, back to the question at hand...So who was the largest Kleitoris?

    Toby says the poet that Strabo refers to is Gaius Valerius Catullus, A Roman poet, often considered the greatest writer of Latin lyric verse.

    What GV Catullus writes about his friend, Mamurra (Also called Mentula):
    "Mentula’s as good as thirty acres of meadows,
    forty of fields: the rest of it’s marsh.
    Why shouldn’t he exceed Croesus in riches,
    one who possesses so many assets, in land,
    meadows, fields, vast woods and pastures and pools
    as far as the Hyperboreans, and Ocean’s seas?
    All this is great, but he’s the greatest of all,
    not a man, but, in truth, a great projecting Cock."



    There you have it, a detailed answer. Wow, Doesn't that feel good to know Who has the largest kleito(u)ris in Rome is! It sure does FEEL good!
