A Staggering Excavation Has Rewritten The Fall of The Roman Empire
Interamna Lirenas has turned out to be far more than a “backwater town” of the Roman Empire. According to a published study in Roman Urbanism in Italy, this central Italian town thrived well beyond previous belief, using its impressive urban features and forward-thinking design to stave off the effects of the empire’s collapse well into the 3rd century AD. “We started with a site so unpromising that no one had ever tried to excavate it,” Alessandro Launaro, the study’s author […] -

Looking at armor behind glass is fine, but feeling the ground shake during a #jousting tournament in a small village is way better. These local #medieval events pull you right into the past with roasting meats and heavy wool cloaks. I mapped out a few lesser-known #historical gatherings across the continent.

How often do YOU think about the Roman Empire? 🏛️⚔️ (Be honest.) Whether it's daily or just occasionally, these podcasts will feed that obsession HARD. From gladiators to emperors to epic betrayals, history has never sounded this good. 🎙️

🤩 Держите к вечеру новое видео с канала Макса Миллера про гастрономические странности эпичного инженера, физика и изобретателя Николы Теслы.
Через его меню становится понятно, что великий технарь был человеком с тяжелой формой обсессивно-компульсивного расстройства.
В ранние годы Тесла был заядлым мясоедом, предпочитая стейки и баранину в элитных ресторанах, где всегда ужинал в строгом одиночестве и мог контролировать приготовление еды.
Его ритуал подготовки к трапезе включал использование ровно 24 салфеток для фанатичной протирки приборов и посуды, ведь скорее всего ученый панически боялся микробов, а также испытывал иррациональный страх перед жемчугом и любыми ровными круглыми поверхностями.
Со временем он радикально изменил рацион, став вегетарианцем, который практически жил на молоке и лишь вдыхал аромат кофе, отказываясь его пить.
В самом видео представлен рецепт одного из любимых блюд Теслы, — жареной утки, приготовленной по методу конца XIX века.
Птицу натирают маслом со специями, обваливают в муке и шпигуют яблоками, но главной особенностью является подушка из 20–30 стеблей сельдерея, под которыми утка томится ровно 1 час 15 минут при 205 градусах.
Больше — в полном выпуске (доступны субтитры на русском и украинском).

Weil ich gerade dabei bin, mein schulisches Latein und Altgriechisch aufzufrischen ;-) Dieser Stein - so gesehen im Kunsthistorischen Museum Wien - beinhaltet eine zweisprachige Bauinschrift.
Was ich erkenne:
IMP CAESAR DIVI F AUGUST PONTIF
MAXIM FLUMEN SEBASTONAS CHEDIA INDUXIT
QUOD PER SE TOTO OPPIDO FLUERET, PRAEFECTA EGYPTI
C IULIO AQUILA, ANNO XXXX CAESARISΑΥΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡ ΚΑΙΣΑΡ ΘΕΟΥ ΥΙΟΣ ΣΕΒΑΣΤ ΑΡΧΙΕΡΕΥΣ
ΠΟΤΑΜΟΝ ΣΕΒΑΣΤΩΝΑΠΟΣΧΕΔΙΑΣHΓΑΓΕΝ
ΔΙΟΛΗΣΤΗΣΠΟΛΕΩΣΡΕΟΝΤΑ ΕΠΙΕΠΑΡΧΟΥ
ΤΗΣ ΑΙΓΥΠΤΟΥ ΓΑΙΟΥ ΙΟΥΛΙΟΥ ΑΚΥΛΑI
LΜ ΚΑΙΣΑΡΟΣInteressant zu lernen war für mich hier, dass sehr oft abgekürzt worden ist - was mich zuerst etwas verwirrt hat.
Das heißt übersetzt wohl etwas wie:
Der Imperator Caesar Augustus, Sohn des Gottes, oberster Priester,
leitete/führte den Fluss Sebastona nach Chedia,
damit er von selbst durch die ganze Stadt flösse,
unter dem Präfekten von Ägypten Gaius Iulius Aquila,
im 40. Jahr des Kaisers.=> an alle, die es besser wissen: bitte um Verbesserungen und Hinweise! Danke :-)

His escape is one of the boldest ever told. Real. Raw. More tense than any movie. And it actually happened.
