Millennial nomad in Vienna. MA Egyptology, focused on economics, trade and settlement archaeology. Parallel life in int'l policy and climate change.
Question for the hive-mind: does anyone know where I can get my hands on "The Rash Adventurer: A Life of John Pendlebury" by Imogen Grundon?

Earlier this year, I read Mary Chubb's "Nefertiti Lived Here" & now really want to read more about Pendlebury.

Visited the archaeological site of Carnuntum, just outside of Vienna, this weekend.

The reconstructed city quarter is very well done! It really allows you to immerse yourself in Roman life.

Strongly recommend a visit: www.carnuntum.at/en

Eu não vou estar aqui com grandes análises políticas sobre os resultados de ontem. Apenas quero dizer o seguinte: o PSD e o PS já há muito tempo que andam a brincar com o fogo. O fogo está agora em 3o lugar, prácticamente empatado com o PS.

Saturday was the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.

Discrimination and hatred against LGBT people not only persists, but is on the rise in many places. Together, we have to guard and push back against the immorality of this hatred.

The @theees.bsky.social has a great collection of archival photos online, including photos from the 1930 expedition to Tell el-Amarna. It's awesome to see photos of the finds that Mary Chubb wrote about in her book.

I've just finished reading the brilliant "Nefertiti Lived Here" by Mary Chubb, about her time at the @theees.bsky.social excavations in Tell el-Amarna in 1930.

Such a great book. Cannot recommend enough!

Does anyone have any recommendations of other books like this?

Was going through my MA Egyptology notes and came across a great lecture we listened to on ancient beekeeping 🐝

The earliest evidence of domesticated bees and beekeeping comes from the Sun Temple of Nyuserre (5th Dynasty). You can see it below (references in the image).

I've written to my MEPs to call on the EU to take decisive action against Hungary for its oppression.

You can reach out to your MEPs in the LIBE Committee and DROI Subcommittee and call for action.

I have put both links in the image below.

Found this beauty at a Vienna bookshop today!

Can't say I'm familiar with the story, but one look at the design and I was like "yep, that's coming with me!".

Has anyone read it? Is it any good?

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

Reading "Nefertiti Lived Here" by Mary Chubb, and came across this:

"...I kept noticing that the word for 'violet' was 'banafsiga'; and as I have a talent, amounting to genius, for remembering useless details at the expense of useful ones, that word stuck."

That's me most days 😂

I've become a fan of Ancient History-themed Mangas. I think it's a really great medium to get people interested.

Here is one of my favourites: "The Heroic Legends of Arslan".

Based on a novel by Yoshiki Tanaka, mangaka Hiromu Arakawa brings to life a fictionalised Ancient Iran.

Certainly, Christianity has played an important religious, philosophical, cultural and organisational role in the development of the West, but it has been only one of many factors.

It is, in fact, the interplay between all these factors that has created Western Civilisation.

Recently on various platforms, I've seen the spreading of the narrative that Christianity is "the" foundation of Western Civilisation.

So, throughout this month, I'll be posting on here to show that this is a distortion. Christianity is one of many foundations of the West.

Today is the last day of #LGBTHistoryMonth, so a big thank you to those who have followed along on this platform and engaged!

But just because we're at the end of the month, doesn't mean I'll stop posting about LGBT History. Follow along and stay tuned for more!

Morre de repente em 1984, parece por complicações relacionadas ao VIH. Naquele curto espaço de tempo, teve se calhar uma das carreira musicais mais consequentes para a música portuguesa e para a visibilidade das pessoas LGBT em Portugal.
