Hi all.
I'm doing a bit of research for a Ranma idea I'm playing around with as a 
respite from my current major work which will be posted sometime next week 
(God willing) Anyway I was hoping to pick the collective brains of the FFML 
for some directions to go on this questions.

Can anyone think of a plausible explanation for a Japanese family (you know 
which one) to be living in an insula in republican Rome?

The best (okay, only) thing I've been able to think of is that Soun and his 
wife took the silk road but since I know next to nothing about Japanese 
history before Tales of the Genji I don't want to open up that can of worms 
just yet.

Any possibilities are greatly appreciated I just want to make sure I have 
some decent options before I give up and say that "Haposai escaped from his 
prison a year after he had been betrayed by his students and punished Soun, 
Genma and their wives by having them become lost in time using the Nanban 
mirror."
                                                              Thanks in 
advance
                                                                   Bill 
Morse.
