How was this painting found? What kind of place did they find it in? Keraunos (talk) 02:11, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Some sort of ancient rubbish dump in Egypt, I think. It seems to have been essentially discarded when the next emperor came along. Johnbod (talk) 02:33, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I remember reading somewhere that it was found in Pompeii. Whoever wrote that was a moron. Pompeii was buried in AD 79. Geta was born in 189 (the earliest this could have been painted). The painting didn't exist when Pompeii was buried. From the listed sources, though, it does appear to be from Egypt. --75.36.32.196 (talk) 17:57, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
