Yeah, and the River Nile especially is a uropus, so the water feature that runs down the straight one that runs down the garden, that's a uropus, and that's another Egyptian motif, and it runs to the shrine.

Can't see the shrine now because the excavators literally lifted it out.

It's not there anymore, but this was very personal to her.

And then a couple of doors down, we have Octavius Quartio, and he is the one that had the priest depicted in this fresco.

He also has a uropus.

He also has a shrine to Isis.

So we've got this community.

They're not greatly far from the temple either.

We've got evidence of these people that were actively worshipping ISIS and involved in the cult, so much so that they were changing the decoration of their houses to suit that.

He's one of the people we know the fate of as well.

Of course, I've assigned it to his name, but we know of the certain fates of certain people and he's one of them.

Or whether they survive.

And I won't tell you which.

Thank you.

They're so relatable.

And, you know, it's one of those old things that people say, particularly archaeologists about Pompeii, and say, oh, don't assume that they're anything like us.

They were very different.

And I think personally that forgets the human element of these people.

Yes.

Okay, fine.
