Happy #NewYear and happy #MosaicMonday. And after a rather eventful break I found myself very much reminded of one of my personal favourites from the Basilica in #Aquileia. A bowl of #snails about to become escargot (although it is not clear if the Romans used butter other than for medicinal purposes), but two of them have clearly other plans. Good luck to them and all of us in the New Year. #archaeology #archaeodon #histodon #RomanArchaeology #ItaliaRomana
