For #AncientSiteSunday the #Hellenistic theatre at Pergamon, #Türkiye, built in the 3rd century BC, alterations were made in the #Roman period. It's one of the steepest known ancient theatres. The capacity was about 10,000 spectators. 📷️ C. Bredfeldt 🏺

A full shot of the ruins of an ancient theatre, located on a hillside. The theatre's steep tiered seating structure is clearly visible, constructed of light gray stone blocks, weathering evident in various tones. The hillside surrounding the theatre is covered with grass, creating a contrast between the man-made stone structures and the natural landscape. Sections of crumbling stone walls and foundations are scattered throughout the grassy slopes.

That last sentence is a pretty clear "If I'm being pro-Palestinian I should be allowed to be as antisemitic as I like". (Which is a fairly consistent theme of arguments I've had with some more extreme accounts here)

6-0 and still none of the England players who scored are English, apparently. I would like to see Braverman made to answer questions about this state of affairs.
