EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, dated 1876, offers a glimpse into the rich history of the ancient Roman site of Procolitia. The image showcases a section of the site's wall adorned with Roman antiquities, meticulously unearthed during an archaeological dig of the late 1800s. The wall is inscribed with the images of Roman emperors Hadrian and Severus, paying homage to their historical significance. The collection of Roman antiquities displayed on the wall includes an array of coins, vases, and slabs, each with intricate designs and inscriptions that tell tales of the Roman civilization. The engraving at the top of the print adds an extra layer of intrigue, depicting the excavated Roman bath. The bath, a testament to the advanced engineering and architectural prowess of the Romans, would have once provided a place of relaxation and rejuvenation for the inhabitants of Procolitia. The photograph captures the essence of the Victorian era's fascination with archaeology and the unearthing of historical treasures. The meticulous excavation process, which unearthed these Roman antiquities, allowed scholars and historians to gain a deeper understanding of the Roman civilization and its way of life. This photograph print is a reminder of the importance of preserving history and the role that archaeology plays in uncovering the stories of the past. The Roman site of Procolitia, with its wealth of antiquities, continues to be a source of fascination and inspiration for historians, archaeologists, and anyone with an interest in the ancient world.
