So, you think it IS a fossil? I'll take your word for it! It came from mountain to the right of Civita (I don't know what direction that would be, but Tonino, who gave it to me, pointed in that direction). He had seen me trying to look for a half decent rock from the ruins of Civita, and told me to not bother -- he would give me one. Yup, of course, home made sauce from home grown tomatoes.

I usually ask for rocks or pebbles from wherever someone is going. Luisa brought me back a fist sized chunk of rock with a fluted side like a scaled down version of a temple column, but I think it's actually a fossil because it's limestone with actual fossils in it and the surface fluting is actually on a consistent layer that looks like shell! Mysterious and spooky! Must research! The second was a cool book on ancient Rome, based on that huge model of the city they have in the modern city somewhere. There are maps and photos and fold-outs and pictures and all sorts of cool stuff! I totally forgot to remember the gifts Luisa brought me from Italy.
