Signpost

In the antique Roman city of Volubilis (Morocco)you will find this signpost. It was meant for the old Romans to find their way to the brothel. I think it's a very "subtle" way to navigate. So after one day on the site with this picture, I must say that the comments are a little double. Some of you appreciate the picture, others are a bit conservative about it. There even was an anonymous person who rated this picture with a 1. I wonder in what century this person lives. Anyway, my only intention was to show you another side of Roman culture, nothing less, nothing more. Thanks very much for all your reactions and keep on sending them.

People that get so easily offended need to figure out whats really important in life. i think its sad when people get all bent out of shape over something that they dont have to look at. Silly people tryin to "save" everyone from things they dont agree with. Give it up. Cool pic, i liked the story behind it, learn something new everyday.! cheers
