Enduring landscapes of the Mediterranean. ๐๐ฎ๐๐
3,500 years ago in the Minoan frescoes of Akrotiri on the Aegean island of Santorini (Thera), flowering plants were painted in vivid detail before being buried by volcanic ash.
Scholars have debated the identity of some of these plants.

OUCH! The Translator of #TheOdyssey Just Slammed #ChristopherNolanโs Movie

The Reality of Dreams
Throughout Human history, dreams have fascinated, inspired and disturbed us. Where do they come from? Why do they happen? What do they mean? Different civilisations have tried to answer these questions. The Ancient Mesopotamians thought of dreams as divine messages. The most well known Mesopotamian story is the Epic of Gilgamesh, where Gilgamesh receives dreams about the future. They also had dream temples, where people would go in order to sleep and receive these divine messages in their [โฆ]https://johnbronze.wordpress.com/2026/07/24/the-reality-of-dreams/

Human Legacy And The Preservation Of Knowledge
The preservation of digital information is a problem that humans have tried to combat ever since the internetโs inception. Thereโs the Internet Archive, IPFS (Inter Planetary File System), and other various attempts to figure out how to preserve what we do, but the very concept of preservation is itself a difficult task. How do we humans ensure that our knowledge, or at least our ways of thinking about the world, is passed on to future generations, and can that knowledge last in [โฆ]https://johnbronze.wordpress.com/2026/07/13/human-legacy-and-the-preservation-of-knowledge/

โจVenus, House of Venus - Pompeiiโจ
What a way to celebrate Friday with this gorgeous depiction of Venus. She appears to glide across the sea as she reclines in a shell. She is accompanied by a nereid riding a dolphin and Cupid shyly hanging back behind the shell.

โจPentheus being torn apart by maenadsโจ
Euripides โThe Bacchaeโ tells the unfortunate tale of Pentheus, the king of Thebes, who banned the worship of Dionysius. This provoked the wrath of the god and led to the women of Thebes breaking out into a Bachhic frenzy. Pentheus was ripped limb from limb. His death was viewed as a sparagmos, where tearing an animal (or human) apart was viewed as a special type of sacrifice. This fresco from the triclinium in the House of the Vettii in Pompeii, seems to run counter to todayโs notions of good tasteโฆ

โจA centaur and a young manโจ
This scene is very reminiscent of another fresco of Chiron educating Achilles. The role of the centaur as teacher and guide to learning the arts and cultivating wisdom draws a connection between the epics of Homer and Pompeii where this fresco was found in the so-called Villa of Cicero. The piece is now held by the MAN Napoli.

โจThe tragic but hopeful tale of Phrixus and Helleโจ
Unfortunately for siblings, Phrixus and Helle, they were hated by their stepmother, Ino. She succeeded in creating a famine and bribing men to lie to a local oracle in an attempt to convince others that the oracle required the sacrifice of both Phrixus and Helle. Luckily after all this chaos, Nephele, their natural mother was able to intervene to save her children. A ram with a fleece of golden wool swooped in to provide them with a means of escape!

#BostonWeekend 29/x EDIT jk, i went here, instead! I've got guests in town this weekend & this is extremely my jam, but not theirs, please go, its weird theatre, near home, and free:
Sun #THEATRE: #AncientGreece x #Hitchcock x #60sRock - โAttack of the Byrds! a verse play by Gary Duehr adapted from โThe Birdsโ by Aristophanes, will be presented as a reading on Sunday, August 10, from 3-4:30.
The reading is free and open to the public. The reading features original songs by Jane Burgess Harcourt, sung by Suzanne Boucher and accompanied by Peter Hoffman on guitar. This version mashes up the classic #Greek comedy with โThe #Birdsโ by Hitchcock and songs inspired by the โ60s band the #Byrds. In rhymed #tetrameter couplets, the brisk verse punches up its wordplay. This adaptation uses the masks and puppets of a traveling theater troupe to tell the fantasy infused with political satire.โ https://artsathearmory.org/events/attack-of-the-byrds/ #Aristophanes #AncientGreek #ClassicalStudies #Comedy #BostonTheatre #TheBirds #TheByrds

[Thread] So, my "homework" assignment has to do with #Amazons -- one of my favorite topics to focus on (since I was 11 years old). I was recently gifted a new book about Amazons, and also had one that I picked up for myself years ago, but hadn't gotten around to reading yet. The books are: "The Amazons: Lives and Legends of Warrior Women Across The Ancient World" by Adrienne Mayor (2014), and "Amazons: The History Behind the Legend" by David Braund. Both of them are Classics scholars, but they seem to have completely different takes on Amazons (from what I've read in the reviews). And yes, I am planning on diving into both books, but first, I'm going to work on my own translations of certain passages in #TheIlliad and #Herodotus' "Histories"!

Unearthed in southern Italy, this 2,300-year-old dog-headed drinking vesselโcalled a rhytonโoffers a rare glimpse into how ancient Greeks blended art, ritual, and wine.
Crafted in the era of Magna Graecia, it's both bizarre and beautiful.

I'm just a guy with a lot of hobbies - #brewing, growing stuff, making #vinegar, collecting #AncientCoins, #photography, #boardgames, #ComputerGames, and much more.
I need a new hobby like I need a new hole in the head, but I am also powerless to resist when a new hobby strikes. Such is life.
I work as a #TechnicalWriter at a Danish software company. I have three clever and independent children who shout at me a lot, and a wife who doesn't. We live a happy normie-life in suburbia.
Back in the before-times I studied #linguistics at #AarhusUniversity. I think about #AncientRome and #AncientGreece probably every hour or so.

Women's rights in Greece and Rome were more of my specialty -- especially ancient Greece. And yes, all this was how it was -- women had few rights under #Athenian #patriarchy.
#LegalStatus of Women in #Ancient Greece
Women were dependent on fathers, husbands, or #kyroi (appointed guardians). They could not own property, and were considered wards of their fathers or kyroi.
In #500BCE, fathers could sell their unmarried daughters โwho had lost their #virginityโ (Blundell, 69) into slavery.
โ#Inheritance was #patrilinealโ (Blundell, 66) โ even if a daughter was the only child, she could not inherit her fatherโs property โ it would be passed down to โher sonsโ (Blundell, 66), or โmore distant [male] relativesโ (Blundell, 66).

[Thread] So, the following is from a presentation I gave at a Women and Gender Studies class I took in 2017 (as a Classics Major). I thought it was important to post here -- especially in this day and age where women's reproductive rights are being threatened. In some ways, we've taken a step backward as time has gone on...

I sit upon the tyrantโs throne,
Enjoying as my very own
His riches and his worldly pleasures.
But he has taken extra measures
To make sure my experience
Is more than wine and decadence,
Suspending, just above my head,
A sharpened sword by single thread.#poetry #smallpoems #riddlepoems #poetrycommunity #legend #history #literature #ancientrome #ancientgreece #classics #allusion
