Formosus Viriustus 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2009 It vaguely reminds me of something I saw on tv once. Can it have anything to do with watermills ? An industrial construction ? Formosus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcus silanus 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2009 This seems to be partly hewn into a rock face and built about. To be very contrived; if it is Spain, could it be a mine and one of the silver mines west of New Carthage? I'll have a go at Orongis although if it is, I've no idea how you got the image!

Las Medulas. No, but that is a fantastic site. A real insight into how the Romans could just make a landscape disappear. 98 BC is an important year for this site. Also, while reasonably prominent, it does not feature on the UNRV Map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marcus silanus 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2009 Thanks, I wasn't aware that Sikyon had so much to offer. Will be included in the next Peloponnesian tour Marcus Silanus should take credit and post the next picture, though, I wouldn't have found it otherwise. To return the honour and to admit to having problems with imageshack that I can't resolve until tomorrow evening, would you like to pick up the baton?
