Probably you mean that at the very beginning, maybe 5.000-6.000
years ago, Long in Latin Classical Period, we have short /o/ and
after a pause of 2.000-3.000 years later, when Latin Classical
Period flourished again, we have 'stronger', 'with new refreshed f'
long /o:/.
Quite interesting! Isn't it?
