⏱️ NEW: #Ctesibius, a Greek inventor of the 3rd century BCE, turned the ancient #clepsydra into an automated #water clock.
A feeding reservoir steadied the flow, while a siphon reset the cycle each day and a floating marker tracked daylight hours. It beat every clock on #Earth until 1656, when the pendulum arrived.

Associated Press: Athens is cleaning its all-marble Olympic stadium for the first time in more than a century. “Athens’ U-shaped Panathenaic Stadium — made entirely of white marble — is getting its first systematic cleaning in more than a century. Rebuilt for the first modern Olympics in 1896, the site is the ceremonial send-off point for the Olympic flame, including for Los Angeles 2028.”

Lentes plano-convexas de cuarzo encontradas en el templo de Atenea de Ialisos, Rodas, y datadas del 750-700 a.C. Producen en torno a 10 aumentos con distorsiones y un campo de visión limitado pero, aún así, capaces de mostrar detalles no distinguibles sin ellas. Posiblemente, aquellas de mejor calidad facilitaban a los artesanos trabajar en miniaturas más finas. 📷Georgia Tsouvala et al., 2024 #antiguagrecia #ancientgreece #herramientas #tools

OUCH! The Translator of #TheOdyssey Just Slammed #ChristopherNolan’s Movie
“I would be ashamed to have written any part of this script,” wrote #EmilyWilson, the first woman to translate The Odyssey into English.
By Josh OsmanPublished: Jul 27, 2026 1:20 PM EDT
Excerpt: "Throughout her piece, the scholar notes that no adaptation should necessarily follow an original exactly. (In fact, she praises some radically reinterpretations of The Odyssey, including #MargaretAtwood's #Penelopiad, #MadelineMiller's #Circe, and other literary classics that riff off the text, including those of #Euripides, #JohnMilton, and #JamesJoyce.)"

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.

✨Pan riding an ithyphallic mule✨
The Greek god Pan was connected with flocks and shepherds so it perhaps only fitting that he is depicted here upon a mule, who is faithfully rendered complete with phallus.
This piece is thought to a Roman relief modelled upon an earlier Hellenistic era relief and it is now held in the MAN Napoli, inv. 27712.
