Hadrian's Wall Hike, Day 2, Part 2-July 27

Descriptive sign of Mithras Temple at Carrawburgh.

Cow at Mithras Temple bemoning the fact that some of her relatives gave up the ghost at this very spot. She seeks reparations from the Romans. (I don't have the heart, nor vocabulary, to tell her that the Roman Empire too gave up the ghost 1600 years ago.) Notice all the M&M--Mud and Manure.

Mithras Temple. Notice the water. Water makes mud.

Temple altars.
