Oh, THAT is cool!
"what appears to be a heart when viewed one way is, in fact, the figure of a hedera distinguens - an ivy leaf used as a text divider in ancient carvings - when seen the other way round."
Yes, this makes me want to go back to Rome and find this. I love little stuff like this. Ohhh, and it's not even listed in Atlas Obscura!
Thanks for the find!
Love this! Thank you.
I go to Rome often and collect unusual sites/experiences to do on each trip. It becomes like a scavenger hunt and really enhances my enjoyment of this favorite city of mine.
I love this post. I am going to add it to my list too.
Almost 5 years LIVING in Rome and I never knew…
Ya'll are my people. 😊
Editing to add: this should help you find it if you go looking:
