JULIUS CAESAR’s association with scarlet red is deeply tied to its symbolic meanings in Roman culture and beyond.

Scarlet was also linked to the Roman god Mars, the god of war, further reinforcing its connection to Caesar, who was viewed as a military genius. And as Caesar became a pivotal figure in Roman politics, scarlet came to symbolize not just military might but also political authority.
