Coincidence 2

Friend Victor had posted a link on Twitter to a Guardian article on Black History Month. It was interesting, I read it all. Including a bit on Roman Emperor Septimius Severus who was the first Emperor of colour, coming from present day Libya.
I moved on to reading a book as part of my research for my next book on Elmet, the ancient Kingdom south of York. In the index I noticed a section on Hob Moor, where we live. Seem Septimius died in York in 211 AD, and one account has his two sons spreading his ashes over Hob Moor. Small world.
