This fragment of wood is of a letter from Hostilius Flavianus to Flavius Cerialis the Commanding Officer of the IX Cohort of Batavians who were stationed at Vindolanda in about AD 97-105. He wishes Cerialis "a fortunate and happy New Year". https://www.vindolanda.com/ #Vindolanda #Roman #palaeography #NewYear

Squeamish reading about toilet issues at the #Vindolanda fort on Hadrian's Wall. You'd like to think things have improved in 2000 years, but with the state of the English water companies that's not so sure.

Well worth a read if you've an interest in Roman history in England and fancy a picture of everyday life on the northern border of the empire. The Vindolanda tablets are absolutely fascinating if you've not seen or heard about them before.
Yes, I've been at #Vindolanda, and I'll never forget the wonderful experience of being so close to daily life in Roman Britannia.

Groot-#Brittannië heeft zijn #bedwantsen mogelijk te danken aan de oude #Romeinen die ze in hun #stromatrassen een lift gaven naar de overkant van het Kanaal. Dit zou blijken uit de vondst van twee borstkastjes van deze plaaggeestje bij de Romeinse nederzetting #Vindolanda.

Really stark change from #vindolanda
"We haven't found a textile on the excavations in the last 5 years ... despite the fact we've been looking in areas that should be full of them. In the preceding 45 years of excavation ... there are over 800 textiles that have been recovered ... from similar sorts of spaces that we're working in now" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CZYHphTiIY
