I’m in Rome and spending most of my days at DAI. I’ve been struggling a little with my methodological chapter (i.e. chapter 3), but it’s coming along nicely now. Substantial sections of chapters 6 (on the Egyptian material) and 7 (on the imperial cult) have also been written. I’ll also try to keep updates of this page more regular.

In other news: The Capitoline Museums have a new wing with a much improved exhibition space for the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius (infinitely better than the old ‘shop window’) and the foundations of the temple of Jupiter. It’s good to be back.

That is a beautiful picture of the forum. Glad to hear things are going well.
