Above comment is in regard to the scroll mentioning Plato's burial site.

Well I am still mostly a lurker rather than a poster - but I remember you! Didn't you have a connection to Hadrian's wall i.e. employment as a guide?? Welcome back, look forward to your posts.

On this page, the only icons I see in the top upper right corner now are three: one for "unread content", a plus sign, and the search icon. My name doesn't appear anywhere at the top. No drop down menu icon. In the past I always logged in here. I have Forums discussions page bookmarked and enter the site that way, not the home page. When I do go to a home page, I don't see any place to log in or out. Maybe it's my browser. I had already emailed Peter about an issue with not being able to access the site at all due to an icon on my toolbar telling me it was "not secure". Obviously that got resolved as I am here. I think I actually logged in finally by requesting to create a new post and was told to log in. Was able to, but that option has disappeared. I'll wait awhile and try again or contact Peter.

So I finally found a way to log in, but now I can't find the "log-out" option. 😕

I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. Right from the beginning, it had a certain modern day political vibe to it. Subtle messages throughout. Those were done well, but overall not a good production - my opinion anyway.

This mini series begins tomorrow night, April 2nd, at 9pm, on our PBS station. According to this link, it was made in 2023. Perhaps others have watched it already. Looks like it might be interesting.

Thanks for the reply.

I wasn't sure in which forum to post this but I'll try here.
On a travel forum I frequent, someone posting in a thread about the Super Bowl ads asked:
"Wonder to what extent (and how) ancient sporting events were tied to commercial interests?
Ancient Greek Olympics? Ancient Mayan handball tournament rituals? Gladiators in the Colosseum and elsewhere? "😊

First I've ever heard of the Draco. So interesting, great video demonstrating the sound.

Enjoyed the video a lot. Gives one much to think about.

Thanks for sharing.

To those who celebrate, Merry Christmas and have a good New Year.

Amazing. Thanks for posting.

Amazing.
I have two old photos of Rome, one of the Colosseum and a very large one of the Forum.

Thank you for posting this and all the other wonderful articles and videos you've shared over the years.

You made me miss Jeopardy. 🙂 I'll have to come back later to watch the last three posted. Thanks for posting.

I don't remember ever seeing clothing depicted so well in a cave or rock painting. And they're wearing pants! at least it looks like some type of leggings.
-
I was wondering why ancient cave painters, who drew and painted wonderful depictions of animals some so life-like, why did they not do portraits of themselves or others? I've seen the simple stick figures, but given how artistic some people were why not create a likeness of oneself, or tribal member?
-
I especially enjoyed the image of the tombs on either side of the Appian Way. I've always tried to imagine what it would look like in ancient times. Very interesting to hear that there were actually make-shift houses and shops between the tombs? stables? Is the narrator using creative license or is this written somewhere?
-
This is amazing.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Been a long time... back again!

Oh, guess I remembered wrong. I thought you led tourists on tours of the wall. Do you have photos of your models?
