Explanation:

These questions pertain to historical events and figures, specifically Julius Caesar. They cover aspects such as his popularity, actions that offended senators, and details related to his assassination. Historical research and knowledge of ancient Rome would be used to answer them.

Answer:

1. For "Ancient Artifacts: What does the coin say on it and what does it mean?": Requires knowledge of ancient Roman coin - inscriptions and their meanings, which can be found through historical research on Roman numismatics.
2. For "Caesar our Hero: Who was Caesar popular amongst?": Caesar was popular amongst the common people (plebeians) due to his populist policies like land - reforms and debt - relief measures.
3. For "What is carved on the tomb? What does it mean?": Research on ancient Roman tombs and their inscriptions is needed.
4. For "What two reasons did they love him?": He was loved for his military conquests that brought glory to Rome and for his social reforms that benefited the lower classes.
5. For "Why might Brutus have felt pressured to stop Caesar?": Brutus may have felt pressured due to concerns about Caesar's growing power and the potential for him to become a tyrant, threatening the Roman Republic.
6. For "Why might this have upset the Senators?": The senators were likely upset because they saw Brutus's actions as a threat to their own power and the stability of the Republic, as well as a potential sign of civil unrest.
7. For "The Twelve Caesars: What did Caesar do that insulted the senators?": Caesar insulted the senators by, for example, sitting on the curule chair in the Senate while the senators were standing, showing disrespect for their traditional authority.
8. For "What excuse did he give?": There is no clear - cut single excuse mentioned in general historical accounts for such specific insults.
9. For "What does Plutarch say about the excuse?": Plutarch's works would need to be consulted to determine his take on any potential excuse.
10. For "Autopsy Report: What does the autopsy tell us about the number and skill of the attackers?": Historically, the autopsy (though not in the modern sense) showed multiple stab - wounds, indicating a large number of attackers. The variety and placement of wounds suggest a mix of skill levels among the attackers.
11. For "How many attackers do you think there were? Why?": There were around 60 attackers. This is based on historical accounts that describe a large group of senators involved in the assassination, and the multiple wounds on Caesar's body.
