Symbol question.svg Thank you for a substantial article on good sources, offline accepted AGF. The image is licensed and a good illustration. I suugest you add the other name via Pontificum to hooks, which tells thoose who know immediately about Roman history. In ALT1, I'd like to see something such as "now demolished", and in ALT2 we'd need a year instead of "newly". The original hook would work only with the image, because without it, we'd not know what a treasure was destroyed. - In the article, one para close to the end lacks a ref. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:24, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
