Imagine digging up your local town square and stumbling on a 2,000-year-old Roman soldier’s tomb—complete with his nickname scratched on a bowl! That’s what happened in Heerlen, Netherlands. Archaeologists found cremated remains, imported pottery, and even a bronze strigil (think ancient loofah). The name “Flaccus” on a dish turned these anonymous ashes into a real person’s story. It’s wild how a single inscription can connect us to someone from the Roman Empire! #History #Archaeology #RomanEmpire
