Roman Toilet Photo

Photographer’s Note

Roman toilets often had running water under their seats. Romans also carried a brush as part of their personal toiletries. This brush was used instead of toilet paper.

very clever...would have been funny if he also had his trousers down :)

Very hygenic...much better than modern methods.

Not only is this an interesting picture, it is also very informative. Very tastefully done. The colours are also very nice on this and you have composed it well too.

can you tell me more about this place - is it a museum? Thank you - I have learned something today...

(sorry, I have switched my points off)...
