Iron age men left home to join wives’ families, DNA study suggests and gives us the concept matrilocality. Perhaps then Mabon the son of Modron in the Mabinogion suggests lineage was sometimes through the female line for the ancient Celts as some suggest. www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

This Japanese print by an unknown artist titled 'Snow Demon' (ca. 1930s) depicts a demon or god creating snow. I believe it's part of a series depicting weather gods but I haven't been able to find any more information about it.

Bringing in a 25 year old winger, knowing exactly what you’ll get with him, signing him on a 5 year deal with a fee greatly reduced from when you sold him 18 months ago…….incredible
