Two Thousand Years Old
And These Stones Are Still With Us
Introduction
This is inspired by the thoughts of things that have lasted from ancient times to the present day, One book I have on the subject is Julian Cope's "The Modern Antiquarian" and I also live close to a section of Hadrian's Wall and often visit the Temple of Antenocitus and the selfie for this piece is me leaning on a column there.
