@sistoryhistory.bsky.socialHere is a wonderful silver ring from the #Roman fort at #Vindolanda
With the simple and poignant inscription ‘Matri Patri’ (Mum & Dad) ❤️ ❤️

@sistoryhistory.bsky.socialFinding (finally!) the carved phallus at Chesters Roman Fort that protected the garrison stationed there from evil. Looks pretty obvious but it took us a while 🤣.
Happy #phallusthursday !!

@sistoryhistory.bsky.socialFor #FindsFriday we have two boxwood combs, one of which was found still in its leather pouch in the Commanding Officer’s residence at #Vindolanda and dating to before 100 C.E.
All combs found were made on the continent and imported.

@sistoryhistory.bsky.socialChesters Roman Fort on Hadrian's Wall - surely the most beautiful spot for a bathhouse 🛁💧?
