I thought the Romans killed the last of the Corinthians before Christ was born!
Corinth was flattened in 146 B.C. and resettled 100 years later. The Romans couldn’t leave a strategic location like that vacant.
I recall seeing an interview with Ricardo Montalban (sexiest voice I ever heard), in which said that he had no idea what “Corinthian leather” was supposed to be, but it sounded good.
