Discover the world's oldest sealed wine bottle, a 1,700-year-old Roman artifact found in Germany that reveals ancient preservation techniques and burial customs still visible in a Speyer museum today.
This discovery is remarkable because it shows how important wine was for the Romans, not only as a drink but also as part of their rituals and beliefs. The Speyer bottle reveals how deeply it was connected to both life and death in Rome. Moreover, the preservation method using olive oil demonstrates an impressive level of ingenuity for its time.
Ahh reminds me of the classic publication How to Poison yourself by Hugo First
