A comparison of the reconstructed face of Augustus by the Cesares de Roma project, with a denarius portrait from my own collection – just for fun. (Epic music provided by Vangelis & Irene Papas)

Born today 63BC Octavian or better known as Augustus Caesar. Was the First Roman Emperor of Rome (27BC-14AD). He was the first Roman emperor to have been made a god. Future Emperors would always look back to Augustus's reign as the finest!

A charcoal inscription uncovered in #Pompeii contains the date ‘XVI K Nov’—16 days before the Kalends of Nov—equating to 17th Oct. Though no year is mentioned, the impermanence of charcoal suggests this could have been written close to the time of eruption but it’s inconclusive.

Happy Portunalia!
On this day - August 17 - the Romans celebrated the Portunalia, a festival honouring Portunus, god of keys, locks, doors, ports and livestock. Portunus is often depicted holding a key, and on this day Romans threw keys into a fire for good luck. Happy Portunalia!

✨ Brand New Partial Pick A highlights reel of the decade that was the 420s BCE. Great for a swift overview of the challenges (and triumphs) as Rome tries to figure out how to run a republic. partialhistorians.com/2023/0…
