The last words of the Roman dictator Julius Caesar are disputed. Ancient chroniclers reported a variety of phrases and post-classical writers have elaborated on the phrases and their interpretation. The two most common theories – prevalent as early as the second century AD – are that he said nothing or that he said, in Greek, καὶ σύ, τέκνον (kaì sý, téknon; 'you too, child'). William Shakespeare's Latin rendition of this phrase, Et tu, Brute? ('You too, Brutus?'), in the play Julius Caesar is better known in modern culture, but is not found in ancient sources.
