#FrescoFriday - a rather fabulous panel from the large triclinium of the Villa of Publius Fannius Synistor at Boscoreale. I love the details of the shadows on the column. #Roman #Art

Made the most of a day on the Plain & gave one of my books a chance to meet its inspiration. The Archer at Amesbury. This archaeological find is a great example of place making & the importance of archaeology (Archer’s Way, Archer school). #ancestorsontour @theAliceRoberts
One of the most well known Mochica individuals was the Lord of Sipán, a noble from the 3rd Century who died in his 35-45 years, and whose mummy was found in rge archaeological site of Huaca Rajada, in the Lambayeque Valley (8/12)
About a year ago I basically went into a fugue state and made a build-your-own Knossos Palace Throne Room Kit, to scale, from archaeological drawings, site photos, and Minoan frescos, and complete with original characters figures.

Mantegna’s work fascinates due to his constant attempt to place biblical events within an archaeologically accurate context - representative of Renaissance learning. His Madonnas are, however, some of the most beautiful examples of Maternal lovey
Day 16 #Archink - I had to include the book "Archaeological Illustration" in the list — I love all the colour (literal/metaphorical) that illustrations add to our imagining and reconstructing of the past. I value the work of illustrators so much for this, notably @kjkillackey

Today I discovered this great obscure manga currently in serialization: Kodai Senshi Haniwatt (lit. “The Ancient Warrior Haniwatt”). It's like Kamen Rider… except the baddies are giant dogū based on actual real archaeological finds, and they're HIGHLY DISTRESSING!
The fact that archaeological and limited linguistic evidence indicates languages related to Japanese were spoken in what's now Korea into early recorded history is a fascinating fact

"...made for the Swedish version of Call of Cthulhu. So far I’ve made all the maps for the Swedish game... This one is of an area where an archaeological dig (the star in the map) found a strange statue."
