An entire Roman mosaic from Verulamium (🇬🇧) being rolled up like a carpet in 1957 #MosaicMonday
It was (at the time) a new technique of covering the mosaic with an adhesive, which held it together so it could be lifted as one: (£) https://t.co/vSB0wg2tzZ
Fascinating world of ancient #glass: A magnificent #Roman striped mosaic bowl, made of preformed rods and canes fused on or in mold. Timeless beauty!
Dating late 1st BC–early 1st AD, found in Cuora, Cavarzere, Italy

Interested in Verulamium? Dr Kris Lockyear is talking about the results of the 2022 geophysics season & there may be a mention of palaces (& a push-me-pull-you)! Friday 2nd December, 19.30 at the United Reformed Church in Welwyn Garden City @WelwynArchSoc
Hurrah! #HadriansWall sites off the @HistoricEngland Heritage at Risk register! VERY proud to have led with @duxBritanniarum and @kmurphster the @Wall_CAP work taking Port Carlisle, Steel Rigg, Cat Stairs and Mucklebank Turret off the list. Love the Wall! Walk by it, not on it!

@davegrifx Yup, waiting to see what happens and looking at what else it available. Pity really, I've linked to a lot of interesting people/sites and learned a lot! Ah well, nothing stays the same - mind you an edit button would be good.
@arthistorynews I had hoped he would - new broom etc. When he said there were going to be tough choices, I assume he meant policy/spending cuts not that we would have to put up with a recycled (already failed) Cabinet.
We all know recycling is a good thing, but when it come to a recycled Cabinet - NO. Same people who were part of creating the mess, back in place. Please can we do without the recycling for once and get some new thinking/approaches?
@Tess_Machling hmm - deckchairs, Titanic. Hoped for a few new faces & old Justice Sec did get strike sorted & lost bill of rights so hoped he would stay. Not exactly Cabinet of all the talents... I'm sure there are better candidates, but not from the warring factions!
Do you think Johnson statement tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? If so press LIKE. If on the other hand you think it is the deluded self-serving bullshit of a disgraced lying lawbreaker press RETWEET
