maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2099 Posts	Posted 04/29/2024 04:00 am I recently had the luck to be able to visit the current exhibition - Legion: life in the Roman army at the British Museum. I took some photos to give an idea of what was on display and have uploaded some to my Forvm gallery. They comprise the last 49 images in the gallery linked below. I hope that there is something of interest to members. https://www.forumancientcoins.com/g...up&cat=-1262 Report this Post to the Staff

The hoards of course are always cool to look at and imagine the circumstances in which they were hidden, but my fave pictures actually are of the Meroë Head. He's got a pretty intense stare!

maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2099 Posts	Posted 05/09/2024 05:20 am I have also created a gallery documenting some of my trips to the BM. I have started primarily with Roman Imperial statuary. https://www.forumancientcoins.com/g...p?album=8070 Report this Post to the Staff
livingwater Pillar of the Community United States 2213 Posts	Posted 05/09/2024 11:57 am Thanks for posting. I really like to go to museums. A few years ago a traveling Pompeii exhibit toured the USA. I went and very much enjoyed it. There were some Roman coins and many artifacts to see including several body casts of victims. Report this Post to the Staff
maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2099 Posts	Posted 05/09/2024 1:23 pm I was lucky enough to visit Pompeii and Heculaneum back in 2015. A few images from that trip and from a few other Roam sites in the UK can be found here.... https://www.forumancientcoins.com/g...p?album=1262 Report this Post to the Staff
