Archaeologists in Rome have excavated deep under the walled garden of the Palazzo della Rovere since 2020 as part of planned renovations on the frescoed Renaissance building.

A 2nd c. BCE cameo of banded agate, used to great effect, to create a double portrait. BUT the museum info differs from the info in the exhibition at the #GettyCenter, where I spotted it a few years ago. The foreground character is undoubtedly a Ptolemaic king, but is the background character Zeus-Ammon (ram's horns hidden by the king) or Hercules? #archaeology #AncientArt

An image of the sun god Apollo reflects back from this golden-orange 1st c. BCE Roman sard intaglio. The warm colors are appropriate for this god, and his mane of curls are reminiscent of the portraits of Alexander the Great.

The cup-bearer, a rare exemplar of the ancient-modern Cycladic style: "The outstretched right arm, with the slightly flexed elbow, profters a small beaker. The freely extended hand is an extremely rare feature in Cycladic sculpting". 2800-2300 BCE #AncientArt #Art #sculpture #AncientGreek #Cyclades #Aegean #Greece #Ganymede #mythology #archaeology

The exhibition in Paris showcasing the sarcophagus of Ramesses the Great is reviving the debate of whether the Exodus occurred during the era of the king.

The more I look, the more I find. And the more I look, the more modern a lot of it feels. #minoan #MinoanArt #AncientCrete #Knossos #BronzeAge #AncientArt
