@Izzie,
These maps are no damned good. Going to take a minute and dig out my own, and look at a few art books nearby.

@Izzie,
Ah, I didn't understand the arrow, thought it meant east!

Well, now that it's Pompeii, let me look around a bit. (I've never been there, only to Ostia Antica).

@ossobuco,
Ah, he's at the house of the faun..

"Bronze statue in what remains of the House of Faun. The villa belonged to the wealthy patrician Casii."

A tad like Cellini's Perseus in arm movement, but only the left arm.

@Izzie,
Yeh, but I guessed Renaissance, but it fit nothing I knew.


Mostly I travel vicariously on these things now, so I learn as I go. That was a hell of a trip through China earlier today, what with a million rivers and lakes and mountains.

Ok, I'll try for something different.

@Izzie,
Have a good sleep.
I'm going to be making up a batch of burritos myself soon, once some of the ingredients thaw.
This game is addictive in its get-under-your-skin way.
