This story offers a thought-provoking exploration of the ancient Roman world, where justice and public spectacle shaped societal norms. This collection examines the practice of crucifixion, a severe form of punishment used in the Roman Empire for those convicted of serious offenses, reflecting the era’s complex and often harsh approach to law and order.

The narrative centers on Fulvia, a woman caught in the turmoil of her time, facing the consequences of a society governed by strict codes. Through her story, the collection highlights the challenges endured by individuals in a world where public punishment was a stark reality. Fulvia’s journey invites readers to consider the personal and emotional toll of such historical practices.

Featuring forty evocative artistic renderings, the collection portrays the resilience of various individuals—Christian martyrs, Jewish rebels, conquered Gauls, and others labeled as outcasts. Each piece captures the strength and humanity of these figures against the backdrop of their trials, encouraging reflection on the cultural and historical forces at play. Inspired by Damian’s artwork, Makkar’s photography, and Jedakk’s narratives, Echoes of Antiquity provides a sensitive yet compelling look at a challenging period in history, prompting readers to contemplate themes of justice, endurance, and the human spirit in the face of adversity.
