Hi there!
I will travel to Brussels and be there between 27-30.11.2008. I would like to know if there are any good museums containing roman stuff? Also are there any RAT-members living in / near Brussels, perhaps we could have a pint together?
Cheers,
Jyrki

Hi Jyrki,
When visiting the Jubelparkmusea (officialy called Musea of Art and History), don't forget to take a look at the awsome maquette of the city of Rome in ancient times! It is tucked away in a seperate room, so easy to miss.
Apart from that the collection of the digs in Apamea (winterbase of Legio II Parthica) is a plus too.
@ Jeff, I thought the RAT-conference was a week earlier (22-23 nov) than the date Jyrki is visiting Brussels (27-30 nov).
Greets,
Hans
