Just a quick call-out to the great advertising HBO did for the second season of Rome which saw pictures of the cast scrawled with graffiti. I was reminded of this recently and am still amused by the clever use of this ancient trope, which was also a plot point in that season.

Here is some more Roman graffiti, always fun reading, and a rare insight into the lives of the non-elites in the ancient world.
