This is today’s question. Yesterday’s comes next
A wrote something about the general B . How is this related to the world of music ?
In his book The City of God , St. Augustine ( A ) described the execution of Marcus Atilius Regulus ( B ) by Carthaginians as follows : “packed him into a tight wooden box, spiked with sharp nails on all sides, so that he could not lean in any direction without being pierced” . This was supposedly the inspiration for the Iron Maiden ( the torture device ie ) and the music connection we are looking for is , of course , Iron Maiden
.
Goes uncracked . Half credits to Anil Raghavan for the Id .
