Die Linken sind Antifa, sie unterscheiden sich demnach nicht vom Grundgesetz, welches bekanntlich auch Antifa ist. Wer gegen Faschismus ist, gilt bereits wieder ein Staatsfeind. Ihr versteht schon was das bedeutet!?

These two 1st-2nd c. CE Roman marble theatrical masks represent comedy and Melpomene, muse of tragic theater. They were discovered in the peristyle of a ruined Roman villa of La Estación in Antequera, Spain. Note the little face of the actor behind the large open mouth of the comedy mask! 😆 🏺 📸 me
Marble mask of the personification of comedic theater. It’s somewhat grotesque, the mouth opening in a large open and wide grin, with bugged-out eyes and deep laugh lines around the eyes and forehead. He has a pompadour hairstyle, taller than the face itself, and it falls to the level of the mask’s chin, with incised wavy lines. A small frowning face of an actor with a snub nose can be seen inside the large mouth.

It’s the face of a woman, specifically Melpomene, muse of tragic theater, her eyes open wide and her mouth opening in a horrified scream. She has a two-tiered wig of wavy or ringleted hair with a center part.

This ancient Greek figure from the 2,500 year-old Douris Cup looks uncannily like someone working on a laptop! 😲 💻 He’s actually writing with a stylus on a hinged wax writing tablet! The technology has changed, the posture has not! 😂 Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me
My photo shows detail from an ancient Greek red-figure kylix (drinking cup) of a young man shown in profile seated on a stool facing right. He wears a knee length cloak (himation) over his left shoulder, which is shown in folds around his waist and upper legs. His right shoulder, chest, and arms are bare. His dark hair is short, and he wears a band around his head. He is looking down at an open rectangular wax writing tablet which he is supporting in his left hand above his lap. In his right hand he holds a metal stylus pen poised over the writing tablet. The wooden writing tablet is hinged like a book and, from this angle, resembles a modern laptop. The figure is part of a scene depicting school lessons in ancient Athens, painted by Douris around 480 BC. On display at the Altes Museum in Berlin.

Everyday objects are the real archaeological treasures! Birch bark is perfect for making containers and wrapping. This 7,500-year-old wrapping was X-rayed, but unfortunately, it didn't show anything. It probably held something perishable. From the Mesolithic settlement of Motala/Sweden. 🧵1/2 📷me

This 1845 lithograph of Layer Marney Tower has everything: England's tallest Tudor gatehouse, dramatic architecture, and a cow who appears completely uninterested in any of it.
Illustration of a grand Tudor gatehouse with four tall, ornate brick towers featuring patterned stonework and large mullioned windows. A timber‑framed building with a red‑tiled roof sits on the left side. A single sheep stands on the dirt path leading toward the arched entrance. Trees and shrubs frame the scene under a pale sky.

#TerracottaTuesday Medusa has death in her eyes. She could cast her spell and turn you to stone from both sides of large askos from a 3-2 C BC tomb in Cannae, Puglia. Fine modelling, and the polychrome - especially red lips - would have added to a startling impression. 🏺 #Archaeology Canne Museum
A large terracotta jug (askos) with a spout, and faces of Medusa with wide glaring eyes on either side. traces of polychrome designs are evident on the body of the jug, and also on the face, particularly on red lips. 
The citadel of Canne where this was excavated apparently overlooks the site of the 216 BC battle featuring Hannibal, between Romans and Carthiginians. Archaeological evidence hasn't yet confirmed this....Side view of jug showing faces either side, and a polychrome design with long streaks  and curves painted in red, pink, white and blue.

#TombTuesday Roman tomb on Dere Street, near High Rochester, Northumberland. #RomanBritain #Archaeology #History (see Alt.)
Dere Street Roman Road
was built by occupying Romans in AD 7981. It was reused during the time of the Antonine Wall, some 60 years later. It also found use in 1298, when King Edward
of England marched his forces north along Dere Street to the Battle of Falkirk.
A Roman cemetery is an area of ground set aside for the disposal, celebration and remembrance of the dead. Under Roman law it was illegal to bury or burn the dead within a town, so throughout the Roman
occupation
cemeteries were set up outside the settlement to which they belonged, usually alongside an approach road. The monument is situated on a rocky eminence some 400m SE
of High Rochester Roman fort close to Petty Knowes farmhouse, and comprises a Roman cemetery located on either side of Dere Street Roman road. Around I00 small barrows have been identified, these being largely low circular mounds averaging 3-4m dia. some of which also exhibit a shallow external ditch and low external bank.
