Roman bird-shaped glass vessels were used as perfume bottles. The liquid was sealed inside the vessels and the tip of the tail had to be broken to remove the perfume. The one pictured (c. 1st century AD) is still intact and filled with the scented content.

A City of Brick, a City of Marble (2023)
A few screenshots of a personal project I made in the Sims 3. Called Latium, it an artistic and significantly scaled down reproduction of Ancient Rome during the First Century CE. Featured are various artistic depictions of real-world structures that have been constructed in the Roman Forum and the foot of the Capitoline Hill as they might’ve appeared toward the end of Emperor Augustus’ rule.
Other buildings are reconstructions of commoner structures that would’ve filled in the space between the monuments of the real city. I drew inspiration from various reconstructions of the era (both historical and artistic), most notably Digitalis Forum Romanum and the sets of HBO’s Rome and the BBC’s Ancient Rome: Rise and Fall of an Empire.
Progress report:
I finally built the shell of the Mamertine Prison. I moved and embellished two of the insulae and moved them to the foot of the Capitoline hill.  Also, I built a smaller version of the Porticus Deorum Consentium.
This basically begins the first of the actual street scenes leading into the city center and creates a very big contrast between the Augustan Forum in its splendor and the blighted lives of the Empire’s working classes. My next task is to sculpt and landscape the Capitoline hill then work my way outward to the other geographic features.
You can view the rest of this project on my dedicated Sims 3 build blog.

Bath House Tile from Hexham, England dated to the 1st Century CE on display at the Roman Vindolanda Fort and Museum in Hexham, England
Large quantities of tile were discovered during the excavation of the Vindolanda pre-Hadrianic bath house, The tiles were probably manufactured on site ar Vindolanda. When they were laid out to dry numerous small animals walked over the damp clay, leaving footprints. Over 300 animal prints have been identified, representing cat, pig, cattle and sheep or goat.
Other impressions on the tiles include human finger prints, textile prints (where the tile carrier has pressed the tile against their rough apron or tunic) and grafitti.
