          Lovely things, but I wonder exactly how they were regarded at the time. Ancient? Magical? Powerful?

          Possibly so! And as a symbol of Romanitas?

          Of course, but how much of what we comprehend as 'Romanitas' was known by these times/cultures/people?

          Again, another of these treasures when something already exotic and ancient is repurposed. Doubles the value for us now.
