I have been bidding for cheap Roman antiquities on eBay: battered bronze rings found in a field near Bratislava that once belonged to shortsighted ethnic archers from Legion MMXVI.V recurring. You can usually buy a reasonably roundish example for about one hundred and fifty bucks or so.
I often wonder who the Roman God of bric-a-brac was. They must have worshipped such a deity; the Romans invented special Gods for everything. We do, too, but we call them Shops.
Care to share a link?
P.S.
Big Fan

I always share links, except those containing material about sewing or backgammon.

The appropriate Roman god would be Tchotkus, of course.

Oh, I thought it was the twins, Castoff and Bollox?
