MOVEMENT 18
All movement applied at a given moment is visible at a later time (Dogma of Imaginative Intellectual Movement)
They enter, circulate, stand still watching and admiring. Someone suggests that the cubicle was where the lions were kept. Others pretend they are fighting against gladiators. Some sit on the stone benches and stay there. The Roman ruins of Mérida are very impressive. For their size, for the state in which we can still visualize the past. Two millennia of existence and you can see the mark left on the stones by movements that were repeated over and over again. Today there is no movement, except that of visitors, slow and appreciative. But all the movements that were made 2,000 years ago are still clearly visible today. And those marks on the stones are the living memory of those distant times.
