The Sola Busca Tarot Deck (5067 words)
Within the Late Republic period alone, many of the names found in the Sola Busca trumps appear repeatedly at the highest levels of government, which was dominated by a few prominent families.
Sola Busca has been called a "warriors" deck, but it needs to be kept in mind that in ancient Rome the military leaders were also civic leaders.
One of particular significance for Sola Busca concerns the numbering: "And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come", which suggests that Revelation was written shortly after Nero's death.
