Actually “per my last email” was not unheard of in millennia-old cuneiform letters. A woman named Datâ in the 8th century BCE wrote to her brother, “Why have I not seen your messenger until this very day? Now, if you are alive, let me forgive the shortcomings of your character…”

I'm determined not to be side-tracked here: what I mean by women's work is *not* -bearing children -owning businesses that enslave others -cleaning, cooking -sex work or care work but actual productive labor, mainly but not only spinning and weaving—a huge % of all work done in the ancient world.

For me, the most incredible artefacts from the ancient world are the letters people wrote on clay tablets and sent to one another over thousands of years in Mesopotamia, going back to more than 5,000 years ago. They contain recognisable humanity, warmth and humour. Here's a thread of my favourites.

Two scribes depicted in an ancient Assyrian low relief, using styluses to write on clay tablets.
