Diving to those depths greatly restricts what the divers can actually do. Would the 2000 years in the sea completely empty the amphorae(sp??) of all traces of what would have been in them?

Not so much a Julia and Julie as gee this might be interesting. I love reading cookbooks, especially older ones without all the warnings and healthy stuff I loved watching the show from GB - I think it was called the Two Fat Ladies??? they went around on a motorcycle with a sidecar and made wonderful food. I think of them even said - you can't have too much butter!. After watching the video on the those Roman ship sunk, I thought garum might be interesting to attempt, especially after the explanation bit about MSG. So the translation should be one that did offer the possiblity of my actually cooking something. and no, no dormice will be on the menu!

What translation would the scholars here recommend?

I quite enjoyed watching this video. Did they go back to this site and do further dives? Did they find out what the metal(?) containers held?

btw... loonies are 1 CAD.

maybe keep the theartre and sell the palace at a profit?

let's see x members times y loonies = total price

Is this the only site to be supplied with such modern tools? and if not why the comment?

Merry Christmas from Alberta Canada. The snow is melting and it will be a brown Christmas but being with family more than makes up that:)

Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy also deals with the collapse of a complex society - an Intergalactic empire. This a wonderful science fiction series from the early 1950's. Can the Dark Age that follows the collapse of an empire, complex society be shortened? Is there really a discipline called psychohistory? Erik have you read the Ward-Perkins book- The Fall of Rome and the end of Civilization? Note to self: Possible fancy or project: reread the Foundation trilogy (for the upteenth time), re read the Ward-Perkins book, read Taintor's book and attempt once more the read Peter Heather's politically correct book.....

this will involve some losers This phrase is used a lot when counting costs of downsizing anything such as companies, health care, public transport. It is such an innocent bland phrase. Anonymus numbers of people of all ages, easily acceptable. But, it involves actual people. And from what I have seen, it is usually people who cannot afford to lose more. And yes I know, understand, realize, there are people who abuse any system.

Ludovicus - was Superman with his x-ray eyes around a that time? If so maybe he helped?

I want the Roma Victrix Beaker @UNRV http://bit.ly/romavictrix really and truly

Or a young man of Ostia bought his virture for a dinarius. etc..

Beautiful beaker... ooohhh just give it to me...............lol It will look good with my pewter wine globlet, sherry size one and 2 red wine sizes.

Six packs? this picture reminds of the the segments of a possible agressive insect.

I really enjoyed watching Farscape first time round, I didnt get to see all the episodes. One day.

In Canada Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second monday of October. It is not part of the American holiday or tradtion. I knew it had something to do with celebrating a sucessful harvest time as in Europe. Here is a fuller history and description of Canadian Thanksgiving. Canadian Thanksgiving. and yes we do roast a turkey but some prefer a pork roast or ham.

I am readint The Antonines- the Roman Empir in Transition by Michael Grant. I am enjoying it which right now is the most important thing. But I am learning and like the writing style and physicality of the book. Old fashioned hardcover binding and it is mine mine mine!!. I do want to read Eragon by Paolini. I saw parts of the movie and enjoyed it.

Thanks, I am reading Maty's book Legionairy as well. My problem is details, and I blame that on age (a nice excuse)

another film Battle of Cannae Not sure if some else has posted these.

Imperium - Legio I Italica this definitely is not Hollywood but how true would it be? Also I felt quite sad watching it, not sure if it was the music or faces or everything.

wrong thread.
