Rough Roman Memes

800 readers

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

I'm not sure if it is a shelter or just a feral cat colony. But there sure are a lot of cats there.

It's in the southern end of the square, there should be a sign and some steps down, looks like it's open noon-4:30. When I was there in 2019 there were a couple of rooms full of cats being sheltered for various reasons and you could go hang out with them, dunno about now.

There's also a cat shelter in the Non-catholic Cemetery (where Keats, Shelley, and Gramsci are buried) by the Pyramid of Cestius but that one wasn't open to the public last I saw. Usually cats wandering in the cemetery tho.
