#OnThisDay in #History back in 1697:
#Massachusetts holds a day of fasting in memory of the colonists it falsely executed for #WitchCraft. 💀
I feel like they could've done more than just skip lunch to atone for the whole "#SalemWitchTrials" thing, but maybe that's just me? 🧙🏻♀️

Is #MedicalHistory Monday a thing?
#OnThisDay Writing in his diary, #SamuelPepys provides the first documentation of a #blood transfusion...between #dogs.
Scientists like Robert Boyle would ponder if this procedure would change the dog's breed, or transfer skills (like playing fetch) from dog to dog.

For #MoonDay, here's a reproduction of Cassini's #17C Carte de la Lune—one of the first scientific mappings of the moon.
It's part of an an emerging tradition of lunar #cartography which achieved varying levels of detail—& accuracy.

If you'd celebrated #WorldOceansDay in the late #17C, you might have gone to say hello to this Spotfin Burrfish from the original @AshmoleanMuseum collection.
You can still spot him today in our Entrance Gallery display about the museum building.
