I did know about the Pyrenean macaque found in military regalia, but had no idea that another late antique macaque had been unearthed in post-Roman Wroxeter. What a remarkable find! http://www.caitlingreen.org/2018/02/barbary-ape-wroxeter.html … H/t @caitlinrgreen
True! :) Would be interesting to know just where it was found, but seem to recall no provenance recorded :(

No, afraid not - just checked King in Jashemski’s volume. “Likely to have been an exotic pet”.
