Glass bracelets and beads found in the oppidum (#Celtic settlement) at Manching. Manching was a centre of Celtic glass industry. It was specialized on the production of seamless colourful glass bracelets from ca. 260 - 40 BC. The raw glass was imported from the eastern Mediterranean region, the colourants were added by the local craftsmen. To produce the seamless bracelets a glass bead was made and gradually enlarged with a metal rod and a cone.

For #RomanFortThursday let’s go to Qasr Bashir, #Jordan, located 15km northwest of Lejjun. An inscription dates the construction of the Castra Praetorium Mobeni to AD 293-305. It was occupied throughout the 4th and into the 5th century. Umayyad pottery indicates re-occupation in the 7th century. Qasr Bashir is considered the best-preserved #Roman fort in the Middle East. The 1.5m thick walls still stand several metres high.

I would like to expand on the previous post.
The tree has been dated to be more than 800 years old.
About 480 yards ago, annals from Allouville-Bellefosse record that lightning struck the tree, scorching a deep hollow into it. The tree survived both the lightning and the fire.
The people saw this as a sign and built not one but two chapels within the great oak.
The oak was nearly destroyed in the French Revolution but, again, survived.
