Greetings,

I only checked this out after reading a post of Tabicus's...
There looks to be some interesting stuff there...ancient and more modern, some from University digs in the North West of England ..(that is the archaeological variety.....not the ancient socks and biscuits found under the bed sort... :lol: )
this is from the Archaeology - Ancient Greece page...
From them we can build up a lively picture of life in the Classical world, illustrated most dramatically by the replica Greek ship displayed in the Mediterranean Gallery and the recently-acquired section of the trireme in the Discovery Centre, where visitors can try for themselves how it felt to row a Greek warship.
This is the Kyrenia-Delta, the replica Greek trading ship that sank off Cyprus around 300 BC

(wow...!)
Amongst the Roman artifacts are A Roman soldier’s bronze diploma, his demob certificate, dated 27 February 158AD, found on the beach at Ravenglass in Cumbria not long ago and handed in to the Museum.
There is also a photo of the reconstructed face of Phillip II, taken from the skull found at Vergina...

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
