Magical Spells from British Museum




While in the British Museum in London with my wife and her parents I ran across this exhibit. I thought it was kind of cool in that D&D sort of way.

As an aside, if you're ever in London you really should spend some time in the British Museum. While they get hard knocks for pillaging their former empire of antiquities, they are all well preserved and displayed and many of these would have been looted or worse (Elgin Marbles come to mind).

This is probably the best one-stop museum in the world for the classical studies wannabes like me.
