[Sca-cooks] Period forks and Roman cooking stuff

[Caius Fabius]

There is a CD ROM at "Roman Army Tour 2002" at
http://www.cafepress.com/PortaOlbia
with 650+ photos of Roman helmets, tools and cooking stuffs,
which includes pottery, pans, hearths, forks, and spoons,
from Roman museums in France, Germany and Britain.
The forks are similar to modern snail forks used in France
today, and probably had a similar purpose.
