Domain	Definition
Antiquities	1: Arca (kibôtos). A chest or coffer, is used in several significations, of which the principal are: (1) A chest in which the Romans were accustomed to place their money; and the phrase ex arca solvere had the meaning of paying in ready money. These chests were either made of or bound with iron or other metals. The term arcae was usually applied to the chests in which the rich kept their money, and was opposed to the smaller loculi, sacculus, and crumena. (2) The arca was frequently used in later times as equivalent to the fiscus --that is, the im perial treasury. See Aerarium; Fiscus. (3) The arca also signified the coffin in which persons were buried, or the bier on which the corpse was placed previously to burial. (4) It was also a strong cell made of oak, in which criminals and slaves were confined. (references)

Wikipedic	The Auto Racing Club of America (ARCA) is an auto racing sanctioning body in the United States. Similar to NASCAR, ARCA races stock cars, although the equipment is often more elderly and smaller than the stock cars used in NASCAR. ARCA's competitors contain a mix of both professional racers as well as hobby racers alike, in addition to younger competitors trying to make name for themselves, sometimes driving as part of a driver development program in the NASCAR series. The current President of ARCA is Ron Drager. (references)
