"I have seen representations of Roman boxing gloves depicted on bronze statues, paintings and sculptures, but to have the privilege of finding two real leather examples is exceptionally special."
"The hairs stand up on the back of your neck when you realise you have discovered something as astonishing as these boxing gloves" (BBC).

Very cool. They look quite functional.
Very similar to mixed martial arts gloves. Like football and boxing, MMA is my barbaric guilty pleasure.
Our "Golden Age of Boxing" ended when Ali faded and was finally defeated for the last time. The 70's was an exciting time in boxing. Ali was reinstated after a 2 1/2 year suspension and all hell broke loose. Rusty, he climbed back into the ring and fought Jerry Quarry, Oscar Bonavita and then Joe Fraizer for the championship. Ali lost, but it was an exciting battle of champions. After that, Ali went on a crusade, entitled "The Bum of the Month Club", where he took on the top ten contenders for the title. Ali defeated them all. It gave him a shot at the title again and he won it, in Africa, against George Foreman in a terrific contest.
Wow!
Keep digging. There's bound to be a spit bucket nearby.
"He'd see Chinese Boxing can defeat any of his barbaric tricks!"
A Bruce Lee movie set in Rome, with the final battle between Lee and Chuck Norris taking place in the Colosseum.
A magnificent Greek bronze and a 2000 year old pair of Roman gloves combined in the cheesiest photoshop possible. Seems lame to me.

I took my daughter to see "Otzie" the Iceman about 20 years ago
That was before they discovered the arrowhead in his shoulder.
Looking on a 5,000 year old face , even if distorted, is impressive.
The Italians had a big fight with the Austrians since he was found almost on the border.
They got him and have done a nice job with his museum.
Early in my career, back in Feb-Mar, 1980, I spent 8 weeks working at a plant my company owned in Cumbria, on the edge of the Lake District. One Saturday my friend at the plant took me to Vindolanda to see Hadrian's Wall, which is nearby. It was a fascinating place, with a nice little museum, but at that time of the year it was cold, dark, wet, and windy. I remember walking around the ruins and along the Wall and the main thing I can remember is that I was the coldest I ever was in my life, and I had every piece of warm clothing on that I had with me, including long underwear. Must have been miserable for the Romans.
I'm guessing that Dr Birley hasn't got the time to get himself to the barber if he's got hair on the back of his neck.

The anaerobic ground at Vindolanda has allowed softer materials to survive than normal. Around twenty years ago they uncovered a cache of wooden tablets used for letter writing. One of my favorites addresses the same concern as you.
It was a letter back to Rome saying, "Dear Mom. Send socks and underwear".
But my overall favorite object was little baby booties.
Bene scripsisti, WK.
The poor Roman Legion guys needed that Wall. They had to do something to keep the Scots borderers out. Otherwise they all would have been killed, and Rome would have had to send more, and more Legions.
Trump being a Scotsman, instinctively understands why an Empire Needs Walls.
That glove almost looks like my 60 year old Wilson A-2000 hidden in the attic. Maybe the Gladiators invented baseball after all.
Stitched on the inside:

Life before Google Translate was different.
How do you say "float like a butterfly" in Latin?
We have been to Hadrian's Wall several times over the years. It was very interesting to see the changes in that time. Nice to know they are still finding some great stuff. Go there if you ever can.
Proving that the real cause of the fall of the Roman Empire was toxic masculinity.
I wonder if either of them is missing a thumb?

I've excavated at Vindolanda although I have never found anything that cool. I did find a writing tablet one time. Boots, shoes, tent parts, coins, jewelry...
Per the above comments, yes, wooden buckets have been found there. And, yes, Dr. Birley has a moderately hairy back (tends to be seen when he bends over to take a trowel to something...kind of the equivalent of the plumber's scenario!)
Vindolanda is a very cool place, well worth the visit if you are in the area.

senior citizen flight discount
There are a few things in life that people take for granted and one of them is flying on airplanes. In today's society, it seems like people don't even blink when they find out about the senior citizen flight discount. They may not even know what it means for their wallet and how this can affect their plans. But there are reasons why we should all be aware of this and here is what you need to know about the senior citizen flight discount.
What Is It? The senior citizen flight discount was created by the government to encourage seniors to keep going on vacation during their golden years, rather than stay home alone or with family members who live close by. This way, they will be getting the chance to travel and experience the world in a different way and it gives the seniors something to do with their time. This is a plan that many companies and airlines are on board with since it helps everyone out in the long run. Many of these companies were already doing this for their own benefit, but now they do not have to worry about this being an issue for them. They can get away with having a more affordable flight deal for almost every person who flies on airplanes.
How Does It Work? When you think of vacation, you usually don't think of an airplane taking you there, but that's what allows you all of these opportunities. The senior citizen flight discount works when you have a trip booked with an airline. The company will give you a flight deal which is much cheaper than the regular price. There are different deals and packages that are out there and this one is based on the type of plane that you get in the air. The older people are, the less money they have and this allows them to go on vacation with friends or family members and not worry about having to spend all of their money. For example, you can fly to other cities and states such as California, Florida, Texas, and a few others. You might even get a place to stay for the night depending on the airline and its discounts.
How Many People Can Take It? Thanks to this discount, airlines can populate the airplane with senior citizens who are looking for another way to get away from their normal routine. They wish they could go on vacation more often so they will fit in where ever they go. This is a great way for companies to hire people who are looking for good deals on their plane trips without putting them in hardship.
