Domitian - quadransThis African rhinoceros was the third rhino which had been brought alive to Rome (the first one was an Indian rhino seized by Octavius in Cleopatra's Alexandrian zoo, the second one was seen in Rome later during Augustus' principate. Pliny's mention of a rhino in the games given by Pompey is probably a mistake).
Domitian's rhino could have been the first African rhino in Rome. He has been opposed in the Colosseum to a bear and perhaps also a bull. The fight has been narrated by Martial. GinolerhinoJan 17, 2010

Modern intaglioThis intaglio represents Romulus Augustulus, the last western emperor. The legend is ROMVLVS MOMILVS.
I do not know where and when such an intaglio was made, but it is certainly modern. The real nam of this emperor was Romulus Augustus. Because of the inaccurate reading of one of his solidi's legend, some XVIth to XIXth c. authors believed he had been called "Momilus". GinolerhinoJan 17, 2010
