No doubt, the time of the Romans, as marred as it was by corruption and excess and treason, was one of the most accomplished periods in the history of man.

Makeup lasts 2000 years?!? No wonder it's so hard to take off.

So much of what we see of the past is so stark and plain but in reality it really wasn't.

Hasn't anyone in Europe spent time recreating the past like they do at Williamsburg? That would be a hoot.

I've seen Japan's version. It's a string of gift shops. Kinda sad.

Bird poo was used as a blemish concealer during the Roman era.
