So there is some deep interest here (or might that have been caused by the Asterix comics which were my childhood's favourite books!? :-) )<br /><br />By the way, there is a statue of Trajan (Trajanus we name him here) at the entrance of the city of Nijmegen (at the Trajanusplein, Trajanus Square, close to my favourite bridge :-) ).<br />I've never seen postcards of this statue, but if I'll find one, one day, I know to whom to send it!Heleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18206346242374113741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-782996301838206855.post-66758989271411189912017-09-06T09:36:52.765+02:002017-09-06T09:36:52.765+02:00Oui, merci! :)
