webfact Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Italy’s culture minister is calling for a man to be “identified and sanctioned” after he was filmed allegedly carving his and his fiancée’s names into the Colosseum in Rome. Gennaro Sangiuliano tweeted on Monday: “I consider it very serious, unworthy and a sign of great incivility that a tourist defaces one of the most famous places in the world, a historical heritage (site) such as the Colosseum, to carve the name of his fiancée.” “I hope that whoever carried out this act will be identified and sanctioned according to our laws,” he continued.

Purdey Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Funny as I remember reading of Romans carving their names into British monuments a thousand years ago, so it is payback time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a lot of payback for the offender though. There is plenty of ancient graffiti at the Colosseum but recent addition have proved costly. £15800 costly in one case.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-30182678 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there were ancient Romans around in the year 1023, not in Italy let alone in other countries. Or do you mean people born In Rome in general?

Mr Derek Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Graffiti is the sign of degeneracy in a society, perhaps the first sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
