Most of the photos on the above pages were taken in March 1994 during a two-week study tour of Rome and Southern Italy.
Thanks to the Department of Religious Studies at Yale University for a grant that covered many of our travel expenses.
Thanks to my colleague, Dr. Jaime Clark-Soles, for contributing some additional photos, as noted in each case.
Thanks also to Bill Thayer (see his Lacus Curtius) for several corrections and helpful comments,
and to several of my student assistants at LMU for help in maintaining this website.
