I love this trend. I bring this cute little hog from the museum of Vesunna (Perigueux)

One of the most interesting places in Perigueux is this playground. Why is that? Just look at the shape it makes. It follows the silhouette of the ancient arena of the Roman amphitheatre

Does anyone know of any published work on the subject in a scientific journal? Amazing work!
Researchers decoded 16th-century historic graffiti in the Tower of London's Salt Tower.

Using advanced imaging, they uncovered 350 inscriptions from prisoners accused of sorcery—revealing mostly religious pictorial carvings

Amazing work by Dr. Jamie Ingram's team!

Check out this base of a statue from Florentia Iliberritana (Granada, Spain). Nowadays, you can find it at the Archaeological and Ethnological Museum of Granada, which (let's be honest) leaves a lot to be desired.

When you visit the Ara Pacis in #Rome, tear your eyes away from the main attraction; scrutinize the foliage.You'll find creepy crawlies lurking in the dense acanthus: A serpent threatening a nest of eaglets (one escapes); a scorpion & a small snake; and a toad. 🏺 #AncientBlueSky

Great thread and a very interesting inscription! It is the central object of a dissemination project as well. If you are interested, here is the video:

Good day to you all. On this #MosaicMonday I present for your delectation a mosaic of Jupiter kidnapping Ganymede. In a typical Roman motif, Ganymede’s ‘Easternness’ is signalled by his Phrygian cap.

A late #neolithic statue-menhir found at Rottenburg-Lindele, dating 3250-3000 BC. It is considered one of the oldest anthropomorphic stone sculptures from southern Germany and was reused as a cover for a grave in the 8th/7th century BC.
