Hi all Bristol Museums is hosting an exhibition called 'Roman Empire: Power & People' this year and would like to programme something relating to African Romans for Black History Month. There are no related objects or images in the exhibition. Does anyone have any ideas we could consider and are there any Roman re-enactment groups with black members that anyone is happy to recommend?
