0.8 Rome I: All Vias Lead to Italia (epitome)

Content warning: Rape. I also say "hookers", because I'm not going to let the opportunity for a Futurama reference pass by unclaimed.

Per Wikipedia: Traditional scholarship says the wolf-figure is Etruscan, 5th century BC. The figures of Romulus and Remus were added in the 15th century AD by Antonio del Pollaiuolo. Some modern research suggests that the she-wolf may be a Romanesque sculpture dating from the 13th century AD.
