#macedon — Public Fediverse posts

“Alexander did not Hellenize so much as he ‘Macedonized’ the world; he propagated not #Greek philosophy or civilization so much as a mode of relating to a culture only partly one‘s own. Insofar as the cultural influence of Alexander‘s #Macedon prefigured the world‘s subsequent Romanization, it is to #Alexander ‘s indeterminate identification that one might trace the tangled roots of the Romans‘ own #universalism.”
—Liebert 2011, p. 558.

We were invited to go to the opening of a new eatery in #Macedon (GoGo’s café), for #breakfast at 6:30 this morning.

I woke throughout the night, checking the temperature as it went down & down.

When the temp hit -3° Celsius I stopped checking. (There’d have been #BlackIce on the roads & my #asthma would go nuts the second I went outside.)

The new plan is we go there for #lunch today instead. 👍

AO THROWBACK - Alexander of Macedon more widely known as Alexander the Great is one of history’s most famous conquerors.

It's the #DayOfHelios / Sol's Day / #Sunday! ☀

This bronze bust of #Helios radiates with a seven-sunray crown and long hair, wearing a chic chlamys cloak. Perhaps it is a portrait of Alexander of #Macedon.

🏛 Discovered in Tripoli, Libya and dated to the 1st century CE. Today in the Department of Near Eastern Antiquities, Musée du Louvre, Paris
