Yupp, if you look at the Roman Mythology, most of it is copied from the greek one, but there are some diffrences. Also the Romans were really crazy about greek art, so many of the greek statues that are found today are actually Roman copies in marble, as the greek original in bronze often was melted down as spoils of war.
But I still think in these modern days, nobody has plundered the Mediterranean area as much as the British, so I am really looking forward to visiting the British museum. They have about everything there, I could spend days there just looking and dreaming
The British Museum, its in London.
It has enormous collections of egyptian, greek and roman artefacts. Its one of the biggest and most famous in the world, you can spend a whole day in the egyptian section and still not get to see it all
Not like the Nathional Museum in Oslo where you can see everything in one hour, lol. Still I might take some pictures there in the summer as well. Cant believe I lived two years in Oslo and didnt take any pictures from the museum there

I haven't to the museums in London for ages, the last one I did visit was in Germany. Their collection of Roman artifacts was very impressive, as almost every single piece was intact.
