During Caesar's funeral, Antony made accusations against the conspirators who were behind Caesar's murder and named and shamed them. He also read Caesar's will which left most of his property to the people. The people became enraged and rioted. Caesar had been very popular with the middle and lower classes. He was seen as the champion of the people.
