Did you know that #ancient Romans in #Britain developed a unique #pottery method?
#Roman pottery was diverse. The majority of it was made on a large scale via moulds.
You had pottery for lamps, to serve food & drink, cookware, storage containers,...
...and in Britain, #weird jars with crude faces on them. They were sculpted by hand (unusual) & it is unclear what purpose they served.
Some suspect funeral urns, which seem to have traveled with the #Roman legion.

Gerhard Seyfried:
Der schwarze Stern der Tupamaros
Gerhard Seyfrieds weitgehend autobiographischer Roman aus der Zeit der deutschen Terrorismus. München, Anfang der Siebziger Jahre. Im Hinterzimmer der Roten Hilfe treffen seltsame Gestalten zusammen: Anhänger der umherschweifenden Haschrebellen und der Spaßguerilla, revolutionsromantische Tupamaros, abenteuerlustige Studenten und Anarchistinnen. Sie alle eint die Wut auf die Arroganz und Brutalität der Behörden. Unter ihnen sind Jenny und Fred, die sich kennen und lieben lernen. In einem kurzen, ausgelassenen Sommer der Anarchie entwickeln sie ihre eigene Form des Widerstands: Spottverse, unverschämte Sprüche, die sie im Rücken der Polizei an Wände sprühen, Glasmurmel-Angriffe auf Bankschaufenster.

A #Roman #Egyptian rag-doll made from linen and stuffed with flexible material (rag?), wearing linen garments. Her hair is made of human hair. The eyes, eyebrows, and mouth are painted on.
The doll is one of the most elaborate of its kind and presumably belonged to a child from a wealthy family: She's wearing gold earrings and a neck ring and bracelets made of gilded leather.
Egypt, #Roman period, 2nd c. AD.
