A soldier, writing home to beg for some woolen socks or a woman, inviting a friend to her birthday. Lots of everyday stuff that make these people so similar to ourselves.

Why should it be otherwise, after all, modernity in Europe started with an appreciation that pre-Christian Roman values had more in it that are intrinsically worthy than ever Christianity had managed to acquire with the Mumbo jumbo that must be rammed down people's throats with threat of hell fire.
