Really enjoyed the article on the tomb of the ancient medical school - however I would have loved to see pictures of the tomb. Strikes me as a little odd that there weren't any accompanying images - often times you do see pictures of these things when discoveries are made!

If anyone has any pictures of the tomb I'd love to see them and would appreciate it a great deal!

Has anything new happened in classical studies(books,archaeology,new translations)?
