I love the Roman tessera hospitalis. Kind of like friendship bracelets, they were inscribed objects where each friend held onto half. A nice reminder that even without Twitter, Roman friends kept in touch over long distances and wanted tokens of that friendship to pass onto kids. pic.twitter.com/jleEvcGCBb
