The XX Legion
I'm currently in the UK for a brief vacation. We stopped in Bath a couple of days ago and one of the exhibits talked about the XX Legion. Their symbol was the boar and there is the remains of a carving as well as a re-creation of what it would have looked like when it was created.

I hope you are enjoying the wonderful weather we are enjoying in the UK at the moment.
ReplyDeleteYou mean it's not always like this? It's been amazing.
DeleteI love Bath; when I was a kid, I got to swim in the Roman Baths, there, at night; very evocative. I like that boar...
ReplyDeleteI do love Bath. Driving in it was a nightmare but the rest was awesome. I'm jealous that you actually got to swim there. That is a great claim to fame.
