This time last week I was spending my birthday in sunny #Bath, or Aquae Suilis, and exploring the amazing @RomanBathsBath. Possibly my favourite thing was this altar, the 'Haruspex Stone', I believe the only evidence we have of extispicy being practiced in Roman Britain π
In addition to the great programme @StAndrewsSAIMS, we're proud to see former @WinchesterHist student Alice Neale @Revness present her research on Γthelthryth's cult in the tenth-century monastic reform. Congratulations, Alice!
Interesting label on the back of this 13th Century copy of works of Ambrose in a medieval binding. Anyone got any other examples like this? π #MedievalTwitter#bookhistory
