Sure remove the middle names no problem for me. About the c, I spell my name without it (The Swedish way to spell it). If you need to just change it into a c. atrkPi glgiKnrbo (First and last name)

About Claudius reaction to her death. I know Suetonius is more gossip then fact but anyway: From Suetonius, Claudius chapter part 39 this translation.

Yeah exactly my feeling!

Ok let's see, here we go: atrkPi aneArledx gitS glgiKnrbo

I have no clue where that is from, but I do like it. Thats a wonderful scene somehow.

Great post Nephele. I must admit that the roman name structure have always slightly confused me, feels good to have been through it once again here. Great work!

Now this is what I call difficult

Give it to Maladict, was a while since he had the honor now

Just curious, where do you study to get this kinda archeology course's? I wish we had that opportunity here. Looking forward to more pictures.

What ever it is, it's certainly not good for him as GO starts spinning uncontrollable at the middle of the floor. While watching the scene, and drinking the very good wine, much batter then the stuff they *hic* server the legions he thinks he can get used to this. In his drunken mind he try to see himself as an Equite some day in the future. Lets see... 225 denari per year, that would make 900 sesterties.. *hic* Hmm only about 450 years until I have the fortune. I better find other ways to advance. *hic* More wine someone! *hic*

NN, the strawberries are just an example they're from the late 19th century. (The original species from the American continents and the crossbreed from Europe I believe. I'm afraid I can't answer your question The Augusta, my knowledge about fruits are quite limited, just what I picked up at school when I was a kid.

Invented would be a bad choice of word. They come from South America and was brought back to Europe by the Spanish and started to be cultivated in there during the 1540's AD. The first discoveredcookbook mention tomatoes is from the late 17th century Naples. Many thanks for that! The word 'invented' is used humerously! I thought so but could just as well note it. The modern strawberries was actually "invented", or more exactly a result of crossbreeding between two earlier variations.

A lonely pleb takes a look in. Lots of wealthy and known patricians and equisterians in there. Hmmm.... Probably better leave before someone get the idea that I'm a slave or something even worse. *Pleb carefully closing the door and leaving*

I've always considered myself somewhat of a hybrid between Christianity and science. Something like there was some entity that started it all once, but won't interfere with if I'm washing my hands at the right moment each day. It's kinda difficult to explain, I've tried in real life too and failed. Religion is a very complex subject to describe for me.

Wow, not bad at all! Really good. Wish I could do that kinda stuff. Do you have any other to show us?

Do you think you could share some of those pictures with us? I've never had the pleasure to see the Domus Aurea first hand.

Yes, they have found 119 bodies (Killed over a period of time) outside the small Maya temple in their last city. Men, women and children alike were ritually sacrificed and decapitated. Going slightly of topic here. (SPOILER WARNING) I was under the impression that Mel Gibson's movie was about a group of forest living Maya Indians (I don't even know it that did exist), taken to an Aztec city. Considering several factors, Aztec style sacrifice (The Maya had a small temple in the outskirt of their last city where they sacrificed small amounts of people, unlike the Aztecs) the pyramids were Aztec style (Maya pyramids were built by sun dried clay bricks and had a much larger base but were also much less "pointy"). What's really messing me up is the ship coming in the end, should have been at the east coast (Aztec territory). Wasn't most Indians all but extinct when they started to land a the west coast (Maya territory)? I'm don't know really much about South American history thou.

Haha To be honest, I'm quite happy that they decided to develop into chickens. It would have been a real pain in the ass to keep T-rex farms... Anyway on a serious side note, it's interesting to see that they have been able to find proof this way.

I get the feeling that a lot of romans actually did enjoy their bread quite much too, not eating it just beacuse that was the only/easiest/cheapest thing they could get. I did read somewhere that the legions wouldn't tolerate to be fed on a meat based diet for any longer period, they wanted bread (I wish I could find it again cause it was a little more elaborated in the book).

A very good guess indeed, beacuse it's correct. Actually it's the Octagonal room in the Domus Aurea. Your turn then!

Actually, I have good reasons to believe that someone here have been there and will recognize it soon

Ok, here we go again. This one might be far too easy, but what the heck it's just for fun

This really is a though one, hmm.... Avenches in Switzerland? (Former Aventicum)

Haha, X-wings Happy birthday!
