Caracalla was a nasty Severan.

The figures were buried in an ancient fountain of a lavish Roman villa along the Via Anagnina street in southeast Rome.

This fact was brought to you by the Department of Redundancy Department.

Get a load of the illiterate comments in the link.

Quite a find, by PRIVATELY funded archaeology team.

Severus ruled in 193-211 A.D, restoring stability, though not without bloodshed, to the empire after the turbulent reign of his predecessor Commodus.

Commodus was played by Christopher Plummer in THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE, and by Joaquin Phoenix in the remake, entitled GLADIATOR.

I think we'll be needing a Severus of our own to clean up after the current Commodus, Barack Hussein Obama.

My mind must be in the gutter. I read the first sentence as “Archaeologists have unearthed a set of sex marble sculptures in Rome “
