fiberoptical Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 Pompeii actually has a good relationship to us as writers.There are a large number of wall works that were preserved for a long, long time. And some of these paintings and pictures have helped historians put together theories and such as to who and what these folks were about. I find it intresting that they were big on decorating their walls with art and sayings and such current to their times.Modern day graff is mereley an extension of the same traditions....
