Roman Gods And Goddesses of the Countryside, Arch of Trajan at Beneventum, 114 CE

These gods and goddesses represent the prosperity of the countryside: Bacchus, god of the vine with his thyrsos (a fennel-stalk staff); Ceres, goddess of corn and the harvest, with a torch; Diana, goddess of hunting and wild animals; and Silvanus, god of woods and fields, who holds a pine branch (in situ, west side, attic).

Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

Y a pas besoin de partir à l'autre bout du pays pour trouver son petit coin secret où l'on se sent bien. Il y a quelque chose d'apaisant ici, et j'aime cette vue sur ma jolie campagne avec ses prés et ses haies.

Vallum Hadriani

Currently reminiscing of my time spent at Hadrian's Wall a few years ago! Itching to get back and explore!

We visited as part of a university trip during our course dedicated to Hadrian's Wall! This segment was reached on foot after a (very long) drive, and is close to the Sycamore Gap! (which unfortunately we didn't make it far enough along to see).

We also visited various forts and milecastles, along with their assoicated museums - which will most likely recieve their own, seperate post in due course!

Even if you're not interested in ancient history, you can't deny the beauty and might of Hadrian's Wall!

Governor Darling took a party to visit the ship where he was greeted with the greatest attention by Captain Cyrille Pierre Théodore Laplace, who later eulogised Sydney:

The scholar who travels through the Roman countryside or in the sandy wastes of Egypt is going to have philosophical thoughts on the grandeur and decay of nations about whom we barely recall anything. Oh! How he would find sweeter thoughts and ones more practical for humanity at least, if he wandered through the capital of Australia, a populous city which rises majestically on the very site where not so long ago thick bush stood as a sinister mass.
