During the International Conference on Patristic Studies in this August, I visited the special exhibition “Last Supper in Pompeii” in the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. To visit the exhibition is highly recommended to all who are interested in meals in the the Greek-Roman world. The exhibition provides hundreds of well preserved remains of ancient dining cultur. Among them carbonized loaf of bread and many other groceries, interior of ancient dining rooms, dishes and so on.
