7/7 I also loved the incorporation of quotes attributed to some of the women who featured in the book - it made them feel more tangible and complemented the idea of handing the narrative back over to them.

1/7 Spanning three thousand years, from the first stirrings of Minoan Crete to the fall of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, #TheMissingThread by @daisydunn.bsky.social is a fantastic guide to ancient (especially Greco-Roman) history through an incredible cast of women who inhabited and often shaped it.
