A Moment in Time from a Vanished Life...



A find by the excavators at the Isola Sacra necropolis - a toddler’s footprint in an ancient Roman roof tile. You can imagine the children playing in the workshop and running across the wet clay tiles while their parents shout at them! This is the appeal of collecting antiquities, a moment in time frozen in tangible form for eternity.
