Statue of Hermes found in a Roman sewer during excavation
Archeologist report finding a remarkably well-preserved statue of Hermes inside a Roman sewer in the southwestern Bulgaria.
Vagalinski noted that the discovery was made in the Cloaca Maxima sewer, where archaeologists hardly expected to find anything.
I have a friend in Rome by that name!
He has a wife, you know...
Ahh, the husband of Incontinentia Buttocks!
Kind of a long name, do they shorten it to a word or two in daily use or go by the full sentence?
In 2000 years, people are going to be excavating New England and wondering why there are so many Christopher Columbus and Robert E. Lee statues resting on old lake beds.
Dammit now I’m gay again
Sorry.
Hermes got some booty!
Stupid sexy Hermes!

Anchoring some sort of curse.

From wiki: "Most scholars derive "Hermes" from Greek ἕρμα (herma),[14] "stone heap."[3]: 177 "
Seems about right.

So a Bulgarian sewer?
Ok, besides the sewers, what have the Bulgarians ever done for us?!
