This drawing of an elephant, a man (a handler?), & a large head was doodled on the back of a papyrus letter in C5-6th #Roman Egypt. The artist may have seen an elephant at a circus, or have seen the elephant gifted to the Empire by the King of Axum (Ethiopia) in AD496 #RomanEgypt pic.twitter.com/l1BVjtKX9D

In the #Roman world Britain was a mysterious & frightening island, the furthest land in the world, & unprotected by the gods. As late as the C6thAD, some Roman writers thought Scotland was so environmentally hostile that no human could survive there #FolkloreThursday pic.twitter.com/OQZJRmWKOe

On 18th July 452AD, Attila the Hun sacked the Western #Roman city of Aquileia, a center of government, commerce & finance. After the sacking of the city, Attila went on to raid Italy. The destruction of Aquileia & Attila's ravaging of Venetia led to the rise of Venice. pic.twitter.com/YA0Ksp6Ze4

This lead #Roman curse was found in Telegraph Street, #Moorgate, #London. This one reads 'I curse Tretia Maria & her life & mind & memory & liver & lungs mixed up together, & her words, thoughts & memory; thus may she be unable to speak what things are concealed, nor be able...' pic.twitter.com/C405XO9gyA

18th July 477BC marks the most likely date for the Battle of the Cremera between the #Roman Republic and the #Etruscan city of Veii. The Romans under the Fabii were defeated in the battle which then led to the Veientes marching on Rome and occupying the Janiculum hill for a time. pic.twitter.com/A1xlDrmsJZ

The dense vegetation on the right is part of the ditch at Raedykes #Roman camp near Stonehaven. What's unusual about this ditch is that it was cut through rock rather than turf. Raedykes is the only Scottish camp to have a large hill in the middle of the camp #RomanScotland pic.twitter.com/jRz0FBCSfT

Trimontium (Newstead) in the Scottish Borders. Site of at least 2 #Roman camps, 4 forts and a possible signal tower on the Eildon Hills (in background) & where King Arthur is reputed to sleep. It's also home to the @TrimontiumTrust and their wonderful museum #RomanScotland pic.twitter.com/mVrOV14Bs3
