SPQR

Okay so SPQR happens to stand for "Senatus Populus Que Romanus" which means "The Senate and People of Rome". I saw these all over Rome. And then in the Roman Forum where the center of politcal life took place we saw the Arch of Titus and it has the inscription on it! One of my favorite series is the SPQR series by John Maddox Robberts. It was great to be able to picture the actual places where these events were written about!
