Did you know, the MG Motor Company started in the garages that now form part of New College? On Saturday, a newly commissioned sculpture by British artist Paul Day was unveiled to commemorate the historic significance of the now Kimber Wing and captures the essence of the nascent MG cars.

Interested in architecture on Roman Republican coins? All you have to do is keyword search. Using python natural language processing to reconcile descriptive concepts to Wikidata. These are results of temples, columns, altars, gates, etc. Expect more NLP results throughout our projects soon.
The search results for the keyword 'architecture' in Coinage of the Roman Republic Online (http://numismatics.org/crro). The page depicts numerous example types that depict architecture, including temples, columns, towns, etc.

Pot of gold! Rare Roman gold coin hoard uncovered near Didcot, Oxfordshire, by a metal detectorist in 1995. The pot contained 126 gold aurei, struck between AD 54-160. It would have taken a legionary soldier over ten years to earn this large sum! Ashmolean Museum 📷 by me #FindsFriday #Archaeology
My photo shows a pile of shiny Roman gold coins below five fragments from a grey pot
