 * Review
 * Article is new, long enough, and meets policy requirements. I do not note any unacceptable paraphrasing from the principal source given (Atanasov 2009)
 * Hooks are fine in terms of both length and interest, but should omit the unnecessary word 'vivid' which is POV as not validated by citation. I would opt for the original hook (as thus adjusted) given the choice. (suggested ALT2, below) The hook is adequately cited.
 * ALT2... that the 4th-century frescoes in the Roman Tomb of Silistra depict a procession of servants carrying gifts to the tomb's owners (example pictured)?
 * Pic is in public domain.
 * QPQ undertaken.
 * Symbol confirmed.svg OK to go if proposer is happy with ALT2
