On my final morning in Istanbul I tied up some loose ends in terms of late Roman sites, namely the columns of Arcadius & Marcian. The former is barely more than its base, wedged between 2 modern buildings & largely neglected. The latter seems to have gotten more love.
The base and bottom drum of the column of Arcadius The column of Marcian The base of the column of marquee and which includes a Latin inscription and a relief sculpture featuring wing victories The capital of the column of Marcia, which includes eagle above a Corinthian head

the ever changing sky,
watching this ever changing life.
Vertical photograph of the blue sky with several clouds in it. At the bottom of the photo is one big dark cloud, while the others are turning lighter on their way up.

I was really looking forward to seeing the Portus Relief in detail at the @artinstitutechi.bsky.social, but the problem was that I couldn’t really *see* it when I got there. Not placing a highly reflective case opposite a bank of bright windows should be taught in Curator 101. Disappointing. 🏺
The marble ‘Portus Relief’ depicting ships unloading at the ancient port of Rome - with personifications of the lighthouse, Dionysus, plus an arch with an emperor pulled by an elephant quadriga, a giant evil eye, and more. Unfortunately, encased in glass/plastic that reflects the very bright bank of windows on the opposite wall, so you can’t see much in the case.

Reasons recorded for worker absence on this 3,200 year-old ancient Egyptian attendance register include ‘brewing beer’, ‘stung by a scorpion’, and ‘embalming brother’! 🤯

From Deir el-Medina worker’s village. Written in Hieratic script.

My photo shows a fragment of limestone measuring 38.5 cm in height and 33 cm max width, from Deir el- Medina worker’s Village, Thebes, ancient Egypt. The fragment, known as an ostracon, was used to record the attendance of 40 workers over a period of 280 days. It is written in black hieratic script, with reasons for absence written in red.

That Crypto is a parasitic entity dependent on a functioning global finance system rather than a revolutionary framework for replacing it is going to occur to a lot of people after it is too late to bail out

Nostalgic little everyday scenes are a hallmark of the Midwest. Shot on film— through the Hasselblad and final print.
