A High Imperial theme

    
At the beginning of the year I said I had a number of articles in mind about Roman themes in terms of discoveries and conservation. 

It occurred to me that to try and group these together as a thread would help place them all in context, but that rather than combining them into one article which might be rather indigestible, a series of sequential posts on each individual item would be a better way of sharing them. 

So with that in mind we shall, as I explain below, return to Hadrian’s Wall, review various recent discoveries in this country, then look at other locations in the Empire and finally revisit a remarkable survival from Roman Egypt.

My last post on a topic related to the Romans was last month in Roman life on Hadrian’s Wall, and so we will pick up the thread on Hadrian’s Wall …
