Another depiction of the small dog found in Classe (RA) - Italy - Roman age

Among the remains at Classe, the smallest rounded skull belonged to a young dog. Its shape recalls a modern Jack Russell Terrier—yet represented in Roman art as the “Dog of Alexandria.” #DogsInHistory #Ravenna #DogsofBluesky #dogpics

Ancient American canids show no direct links to European breeds. They likely followed unique migration paths, forming symbiotic relationships with local human populations. #Migration #Mutualism #DogsInHistory #Anthropology

These dogs weren’t just tools. They were buried with care, honored in art, and bred with purpose. From Vindolanda to Ravenna, from Spain to North Africa — The Roman dog was everywhere. #DogsInHistory #Archaeology
