Now That's What I Call a Haitus...


After nearly 2,000 years, the Pompeii snack bar once owned by Vetutius Placidus is to re-open. After a long period of excavation and preservation, visitors will be able to once more sample the house specialty – baked cheese with honey.

I'm not a big archeology nerd, but there's something fascinating about this everyday, humdrum stuff that makes you feel a connection with people who haven't been around in eons.

  1. As an archaeologist (and thus a nerd) the everyday stuff is my favorite.
