I hope you don't introduce a quiz for members to identify faces of Roman emperors before I study them more. As an amateur I got many of them down...
Thanks Mat, excellent.

Thanks, this was very educational. The erroneous goat served some purpose after all. There was a report in the BBC that the word "tragedy" in...
