Mille Verba

A picture dictionary of the Roman world. Each plate is an engraving with its things numbered; hover a number and the thing has its Latin name. Then turn the plate into a game, Ubi est…?, and point to what you are asked for. No English stands between the word and the thing. The first plate is free here; all of them are in the book, and online for members.

34 plates, 613 numbered words. Get Mille Verba in print, from Imperial Restitution Press.
