#Roman 🏺

Southern Italy's real locals. Spotted in Pompeii, Sorrento and Amalfi. None of them paid me the slightest attention, which is exactly how I like my subjects.

Beware of the dog!

The Cave Canem entranceway from #Pompeii is such a timeless #Roman mosaic; the dog still symbolically protects his owner's house, nearly 2000 years after it was destroyed when Mt Vesuvius erupted in AD 79 🐶 #Archaeology #MosaicMonday #AncientBlueSky

Looking around for a mosaic pattern to copy, I landed on the post from @drjeball.bsky.social from last week's #MosaicMonday which shows the entrance to a house in #Pompeii. I got to wondering how to lay out the 4-petalled pattern (bottom right) and fit it into a square of predetermined size.

⏳🌋 Scientists use #Pompeii’s exact eruption date to make #volcano #dating far more precise. www.yahoo.com/news/science...

Another for #PalacesAndGardens #MellowYellow. The Villa of Menander in Pompeii (2023). The yellow and red ochre on the walls survived the disaster and are still vibrant. #PhotographersOfBlueSky #photography #ruins #AncientBlueSky #travelphotography #RomanRuins #Pompeii #Italy #EastCoastKin #ECK #WCK

The Tom Hiddleston #Pompeii docuseries on Disney+ is first-rate. Great vehicle for introducing the kids (10+ yo) to interdisciplinary history. /1
