Memento Mori

An ancient roman toddler walked over a clay tile before the clay had dried.

Or he wanted to memorialize his kid's footprint in his work. Never know. Maybe the guy's name was Sid Graumanius.

Maybe Pops wanted to immortalize Junior's mark on the family castle.

Yes, one might wonder who he or she grew up to be.

I remember seeing, very recently, a story about a dig in the American southwest. A path of paleoindian footprints, eight thousand years old, were being excavated. They could see where some kid had jumped into a puddle to make a splash.
