It’s so awesome getting a thumbs-up on this story from an archaeologist! 😀 I finally posted the conclusion to the story today. Now I need to try to buckle down on the longterm projects. But thank you again so much!

Thank you so much, Frank! The germ of this story came to me during a two-week stay in Orvieto back in the day.
