A double whammy for #sarcophagusSaturday and #SpoliaSunday: a marble coffin reused for laundry and destroyed by something as simple as #soap. The #sarcophagus probably comes from the huge #Vatican #necropolis. I think it was damaged by sodium hydroxide, but I cannot tell a lye.
For #FrescoFriday, stretching the definition to include anything painted, we have a cock-headed winged demon from #Pyrgi, underlining the particular distinctiveness of #Etruscan art and religion, always itself, never just #Greek, never #Rome either.
#MosaicMonday this week takes us to the #Palatine hill in #Rome, where a lovely #opussectile floor left buried under a fountain shows the #Augustan taste for magnificence and a #Domitianic indifference to expense.
Browsing in a Roman auction house, I discovered a familiar face on a most unexpected body. A sort of Catherine the Great vibe. @DarthPutinKGB
For #SpoliaSunday we're at the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo of #Pisa, where the majority of the dolphin frieze from the Basilica of #Neptune in #Rome can be found, having served as an enclosure for the #presbytery of Pisa #Cathedral for many centuries.
This rather elegant #Dionysiac #sarcophagus comes from the collection of cardinal Ferdinando de' #Medici in #Rome, and if it has a #sarcophagusSaturday message for us, it's that #spolia reuse spared no one, not even Christians.
My new article on @hyperallergic hyperallergic.com/902588/a-colle…
For #EpigraphyTuesday we're in the #CapitolineMuseums in #Rome, looking at an #inscription found near Porta Maggiore. Ti. Julius Xanthus was a tractator or masseur who really rubbed #Tiberius and #Claudius the right way.
For #SpoliaSunday we're off to the @MAF_Firenze to admire this upcycled ancient #bronze statue of a lamp-bearer, found in #Pesaro in the lands of the #dellaRovere duchy of #Urbino and sent to #Florence as a wedding gift from the duke to his heiress in 1630.
For #SarcophagusSaturday we're going back, back, back in time, to October 2023 when I took this photo of a late #Mycenaean #larnax in the #Louvre in #Paris. The undulating linear patterns on this #terracotta box are heirs to the spiral reliefs in earlier cemeteries.
For #FrescoFriday, we're addressing the problem of a queen mating with a bull, in the #HouseoftheVettii in #Pompeii. It must have been a logistical nightmare for #Daedalus, not to mention an awkward conversation with the king later. Honestly, mythological #sex is such a hassle.
For both #EpigraphyTuesday and #ReliefWednesday this week, I offer you a splendid altar to the god of woods and fields, #Silvanus, with a somewhat scattered #inscription that nonetheless has a good semi-cursive script. This is in the #CapitolineMuseums in #Rome.

@richmondie Well, it’s one style. And the way you’d have to paint a marble statue would be different than this, which is terracotta. But the effect would be the same. Lifelike and not lifelike.
Photographed at the National Etruscan Museum, Villa Giulia, Rome. 2/ flic.kr/p/2pMLBA8
This startling painted terracotta bust of the goddess Juno is from the Faliscan Sanctuary of Juno Curitis in Celle. She was made to be seen in the round (she was once a complete statue), and was probably displayed in the cella of the temple. #polychromy c. 380 BCE 1/

@antmoose @p_historians @museitaliani @chapps @HawkeJon @rogueclassicist @SokolowskiLuk @Livia_en_Roma @NCDrusus38 @caputmundiHeidi Interesting, but sodium hydroxide is alkali and caustic rather than acidic.

@BillKristol What's damaging Biden are scenes out of Gaza, and a perplexity that, whatever one thinks the best path is, the USA seems unable to control events despite giving Israel billions in aid. Instead, it is pitifully subservient to an extremist gov't that miserably failed its people.
How warlike were the Romans? If you were living in the C5th BCE, and asked their neighbours the Volscians, Aequians, and Etruscans, the answer would be VERY. Every spring and summer seemed to have brought fresh waves of warfare… Better get those swords ready!

Authors who have a day job. What's your general method of writing? When do you find is the best time for writing? What time of day do you find most productive? Are you a plotter or pantser? How did you approach your first story?

A great post from @chapps for #satyrday
Bronze sculptural handle of the Ficoroni Cista, depicting a bulla-wearing Dionysus and two companion satyrs, bro-ing it up. Cistas are cylindrical metal boxes with engraved scenes on their barrels, and decorative handles and feet, and were used for storing women’s items. 1/
