I had a terrible day last Friday.  It was around 9 in the morning and I was alone as all of my family had already gone to work. I'd had breakfast but I hadn't got dressed yet.
I went into the kitchen and saw that the rubbish bin needed emptying. So I picked up the bin liner and went to take it outside. I opened the front door and went along the corridor to the place where you leave your rubbish. As I was putting the bag down I felt a draught of air and heard a bang. When I came back to my flat, I saw that the door was closed.  The wind had blown it shut. I put my hand in the pocket of my pyjamas, but I had left my keys inside. So I went down to the security man to phone my husband. But they told me he had gone to China for the day! I tried ringing my neighbour's door bell, but they had already gone to work. So I had to wait all day in the corridor outside my flat!

Graffiti from centuries and even millennia ago can reveal the grievances, passions, games, and ordinary business dealings of regular people from the long-lost past. Pompeii might be the most famous spot to find such scrawls, but it’s not the only place where bygone messages have been found. Here are seven examples of graffiti from the ancient world.

1. “I VISITED AND I DID NOT LIKE ANYTHING EXCEPT THE SARCOPHAGUS!”

A Chinese teen visiting Egypt prompted outrage when he wrote his name on the wall of the 3500-year-old Luxor Temple in 2013. But he was hardly the first traveler to commit such an offense—there’s a long tradition of leaving “I was here” graffiti while visiting Egyptian ruins. One team of researchers recently counted over 1000 inscriptions inside the tomb of pharaoh Ramesses VI in the Valley of the Kings—many of which were from Romans who visited the site 2000 years ago. Their ancient declarations include familiar complaints of disappointed tourists: “I visited and I did not like anything except the sarcophagus!” and "I cannot read the hieroglyphs!"

. A MENAGERIE OF WILD ANIMALS

Crocodiles, elephants, rhinoceroses, baboons, and dogs are among the wild animals inscribed on the blocks of a labyrinth-like complex known as the Great Enclosure of Musawwarat es-Sufra. This monument, in modern-day Sudan, was part of the Kingdom of Kush when the drawings were made more than 2000 years ago. Some of the animals also include religious iconography, such as a lion with wings and crown said to represent the deity Apedemak. Archaeologists don't know the function of many of the rooms in the complex, but some have used the graffiti to support their theories about the purposes of different sections. They've proposed interpretations ranging from animal trading stations and elephant training grounds to a holding pen for prey that could be “hunted” by royals who needed to prove their abilities.
