Quote:What and where?I think this is the Severan "Arch of the Argentarii (money-changers)" at Rome (Piazza di S. Giorgio al Velabro), with its depiction of military standards on the door jambs.

Quote:And they always find in archeology a series of small walls. Every time, a series of small walls. Everywhere you go. "We've found a series of small walls, we're very excited! We think this proves they had walls in olden days. They were very small, and a series of small wall people."
Ok, a clue - this was one of the most famous places in ancient Greece.
Actually it's the only place in ancient Greece that many people have heard of nowadays... ;-)
