That would be great to read about oronnya. Which Gothic churches did you see?

I agree, it's not the fault of the artists that their patrons wanted them to draw their kids/Biblical tales/images from Greek mythology. But to the lay museum-goer, a few centuries on, it gets repetitive. (I'm not saying that it detracts from the artistic merit of the paintings though!)

By the by, I'm thinking that as quite a few BC-ites seem to like traveling, a thread on 'travel stories/travelogues' would be very interesting. (People could redact the more personal elements of their stories if they didn't feel comfortable sharing too much)
