Gold bracelet found on arm of (slave?) girl killed near Pompeii by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. On the inside of the bracelet is carved "from the Master to his slave girl" (DOM[I]NUS ANCILLAE SUAE).

The girl died before her time, but was basically a wife of her owner from age 8 or so.

I'd looked for this particular tidbit, but apparently it's only online in this fashion. Oops, and I said, no more posts about language for a while...
