20 ROMAN TERRACOTTA "DOG BONE" TILESRoman,20 ROMAN TERRACOTTA "DOG BONE" TILESRoman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 2nd century CE. A fantastic ensemble of 20 terracotta paving tiles shaped in a 'dog bone' form, used to line the paths of ancient Rome. Each tile is comprised of two curved, flared ends connected by a corseted midsection that would have fit together almost perfectly with its neighbors when laid. Over time, these tiles have become slightly deformed and worn from the ancient feet that walked upon them, as well as the usual wear and tear from weather and elements. Their ability to fit snugly against one another has diminished, but their overall preservation of shapes are remarkable examples of Roman engineering. Size of each (all are relatively similar): 3.5" L x 2" W x 1.5" H (8.9 cm x 5.1 cm x 3.8 cm)
Provenance: ex-Bohmer collection, Germany, before 2000 from an Austrian collection
