The #Roman city of #Jerash (Jordan). At its height, it had a population of up to 20,000, with numerous temples, theatres, & a hippodrome. It was one of the Decapolis cities - an informal league of 10 semi-autonomous cities on the eastern frontier of the Empire #AncientSiteSunday

While in Seville we viewed this 3rd Century #Roman mosaic, the Triumph of Bacchus, in the Archaeological Museum. The triumph is Bacchus`s conquest of India & he is driving a carriage pulled by tigers, alongside a satyr. You can read more by @carolemadge - buff.ly/2QamdyG

Have you ever wondered what a 2,000-year-old loaf of bread might look like? This loaf of bread from the day of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79AD was preserved and carbonised by the falling ash, and is now on display in #LastSupperinPompeii Book now: ashmolean.org/pompeii

Great to start the new term viewing the fantastic conservation work done by Alex Carrington ACR on the rare Old Priory wall paintings, which probably date from the earliest years of the School.
