Mon été en #histoire #histodon #antiquidons avec les Romains :
- SPQR, de Mary Beard (enfin fini !)
- L'Atlas de Rome et des barbares, d'Hervé Inglebert
- Le monde de l'antiquité tardive, de Peter Brown

Much réappropriation 🧘‍♀️ et moult découvertes 🤸‍♀️

Tout ça toujours grâce à cette liste extraordinaire : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jPBXwdAbDBKp3Q8fcS3U-_r21swp2ucPsG-Ac4PiE68/edit

Okay #antiquidons #histodons, it's time to remind you all why I won't be at #AIMS any time in the foreseeable future, and why I'm still looking for co-organizers for a convention on new frontiers in ancient studies.

Two years ago, I was personally invited to participate in an AIMS panel on using gaming in the classroom. I had a lovely time. I liked a lot of the other sessions, too. The problem arose when I went to the Black Classicisms panel, which I was very excited to see. 1/?

It's Saturday stream day! I'll be playing Stray Gods and talking about the ancient studies content today at 3 p.m. EDT on my Twitch channel. Let's solve a mystery- and rewrite ancient history! #archaeogaming #StrayGods #histodons #antiquidons https://www.twitch.tv/zyllable

It's the Day of Zeus / Jupiter's Day / #Thursday! ⚡

It's the Day of Zeus / Jupiter's Day / #Thursday! ⚡

Meet these superb golden earrings consisting of a honeysuckle palmette below which hangs a finely worked 3D figure of #Ganymedes in the clutches of #Zeus, who has assumed the guise of an eagle to carry him off to Mount Olympos. The airborne theme is ingeniously adapted here as earrings hang freely in space.

🏛️ Greek, ca. 330–300 BCE
