Curse against Martia Martina
|
The gods could help you get your own back on people you didn't like. We
know that someone didn't like Martia Martina. They wrote her name backwards
on this strip of lead and threw it into the river. They believed that doing
this would put a curse on her.
Writing a person's name backwards made the curse more powerful. Throwing
the message in water helped it get to the gods.
