I believe I’ll depart Twitter (never X) again with this re-Tweet. A once-lovely medium for social discourse ruined by a vapid man-child. I wish my Followers (and all others on this hell-site) well. New Season of The Ancient World podcast releasing soon. Strength and love all

OMG is this (re-)post timely: The upcoming season is all Sintashta all the time ;)

I honestly don't understand why my Feed isn't filled with rabid discussions of the Sintashta every day. I mean, they invented the chariot & helped sew the seeds for two major world religions (Hinduism & Zoroastrianism). What's not to be excited about(!?) Just sayin' ;)

古代エーゲ海のタコ文様土器。需要が多そうなので。 引用の土器のように大胆に描かれたものもあれば、こちらの土器のような控えめサイズのものもあります（とはいえ複数描かれている…）。 （イラクリオン考古学博物館）

🟡The ancient Mesopotamian civilisation’s weirdest job? Meet the veterinary exorcist In the cradle of civilisation, illness wasn’t just a medical problem — it was a supernatural one. That’s why Mesopotamians turned to exorcists not only to treat people, but animals too..

The Campaign of Sety I in Canaan was a successful military expedition in his first regnal year (c. 1290 BC) to restore Egyptian imperial control, defeating the Shasu Bedouins and seizing towns like Beth-Shean and Yenoam. #WarInTheAgeOfRamesses

Sipping my coffee ☕️ and thinking about these marvellous Minoan cups! They look so modern it’s incredible to think they were made by Bronze Age potters some 3,800 years ago! Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete. 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo collage shows five cylindrical Minoan cups each with a single handle and a slightly flaring rim. Each cup has a black slip background decorated with a different geometric polychrome motif painted in white, red and orange colours. This type of Minoan pottery is known as Kamares Ware, after the Kamares Cave in central Crete where this kind of pottery was first found. Kamares Ware vessels were luxury items produced by palace workshops mainly at Phaistos and Knossos. These five cups were excavated at Phaistos and are dated 1800-1700 BC.

لوح مخروطي الشكل للملك اوروكاجينا 2350 ق.م يروي الصراع بين لكش واوما. اذ بلغت الحرب آخرها بانتصاره وإعادة رسم الحدود. يُفترض أن هذا المخروط يقف بين علامات أخرى للإشارة إلى الحدود. قاع المخروط يشبه شبكة ويتوافق مع تحذير لسكان أومأ من أن الغزاة سيقعون في شباك الاله انليل
