Send us a textVictor, Evelyn, and Mark hang out this week to talk about Mother's Day, The Met Gala, dudes standing up, parenting, and what to do with their bodies.

I'm reading and talking about Ted Gioia's "Immersive Humanities Course," 52 weeks of World Classics.This week's reading was the Egyptian Book of the Dead. Somehow I did not get Ted's recommended translation by Susan Hollis. Instead, I had the gigantic and very, very beautiful reproduction of the complete Papyrus of Ani. This edition had a huge influence on my week "in" Egypt.The Book of the Dead isn't really one book; at the time of its writing (around 1300 BC) it was common to have a papyrus scroll of spells and directions placed in the coffin with the deceased. In this case, the priest Ani had died and this is his scroll. There have been many such scrolls, and pieces of scrolls, found in various tombs across Egypt. Each section of the scroll contains a text that has, for modern purposes, been called a chapter. Many scrolls have many “chapters” in common, but so far no scroll has all of them. On top of that, the chapters can be in any order. The chapters (are they prayers? Spells? Opinions seem split.) are, for the most part, pretty obscure. We spend some time reading excerpts, just to get a sense of them. There really isn't a description of how a person might become “spiritualized” or “pure.” Everything is instruction for the dead in the afterlife.Here are a few more thoughts about this reading. It might seem a little random, but this reading felt a little random, too:Until the Rosetta Stone was found in 1820, the text was completely unknown. The guess was that it was a book of wisdom similar to our Bible. That's actually completely wrong—none of it is oriented toward the living. The text is all about the god Osiris, who was murdered, mourned and buried. Later myths tell of Osiris' resurrection. The vignettes are personalized, in this case for the priest Ani (and his wife Tutu).Burials apparently re-enacted the death of Osiris in ritual form, delivering the deceased to the point of the weighing of the heart. There are prayers to open the deceased's mouth, ears, and eyes in the afterlife, because all of these would be necessary to live there. There is debate whether the myth created the ritual, or did the burial ritual arise first, with the myth developing around it later to explain the actions? It's interesting to me that we can't know based on what the Egyptians left behind.Judgment in the afterlife is the literal weighing of the deceased's heart against a feather! (I would definitely not pass.) The feather is called a ma'at, and is “Truth” or “Rightful Order.” If you are found to have a light heart, you can pass to the good afterlife, the Field of Reeds.The heart is the single most important part of a person, living or dead. It's the engine of the body and the seat of both emotions and intelligence. In the afterlife it was very important not to lose your heart, even though it was now outside of your body thanks to the mummification process.The Egyptians saw death as the confrontation with nonexistence and irrationality. The goal of weight your heart was to travel as an akh, in the sun and in order. The Book of the Dead is a guide to thwart the chaos of the universe, and even the gods had to contend with that disorder.Words, images and reality were a unity in Egyptian thought. The images in the scrolls function as text, and all of it is real. In drawing or writing things, they take on reality. In fact, this was why defacing the name of a king would be regarded as a capital crime; it was no better than assaulting or murdering the king himself.Many gods are represented by animal faces or body parts. Interestingly, this wasn't meant to...

In this interview, we delve into the past with bioarchaeologist, Sherry Fox (Arizona State University), as we explore how bioarchaeologists utilize technology to reconstruct the lives of ancient inhabitants, identify various ailments they suffered and how studying even their teeth can unveil details about their occupations. We'll explore a variety of subjects, including cranial modification practices in Cyprus(!), the evolution of burial customs throughout centuries, and the ethical considerations surrounding the preservation of human remains.

Luigi Palma Di Cesnola is a controversial figure in Cypriot history. Born in Turin in 1832, he served in the First Italian War of Independence and later in the Crimean War. In 1858, he left Italy for the United States where his service in U.S. Civil War earned him distinction. He was later appointed as a consul in Larnaca where he engaged in wide-spread excavations (which many have considered tantamount to looting). Most of his finds were purchased by the Metropolitan Museum of Art where he served as its first director. His finds can still be seen there to this day.  This excerpt was taken from his book, "Cyprus: Its Ancient Cities, Tombs and Temples" where he describes one of the many tombs across Cyprus. This, of course, being the perfect introduction to next month's guest, Dr. Sherry Fox, where we discuss changing burial customs in Cyprus from the very ancient to the present. Next month: Bones, Burials and Bioarchaeology! Here is the text in full: "West of these tombs, I discovered nine oven-shaped caverns, containing such a quantity of bones that I was extremely curious to examine one thoroughly. Accordingly, the earth was removed and I counted no less than sixty-four human skulls. These nine caverns would have been infinitely too small to contain the amount of bodies indicated and I believe therefore that they were ossuaries for bones, removed from the rock-cut tombs to make way for other bodies. There was a platform made of sun-dried bricks and upon the platform the dead were laid, with the head always towards the entrance. These tombs were made to contain in most cases three bodies, yet in many of them the remains of two, one on the right and the other on the left of the doorway. In some few instances a reversed earthenware plate was found placed under the head, serving as a pillow to the dead." Luigi Palma Di Cesnola - Cyprus Its Ancient Cities, Tombs and Temples, 1877"

With all the death in Shakespeare's works, you may not be shocked that the word “Funeral” comes up in Shakespeare's plays over 20 times, but what is surprising is that funeral ceremonies are used by Shakespeare in multiple plays to serve a specific role, almost a character in and of themselves for how they impact the plot. Most notably, and my apologies here for any spoilers, the play is still worth seeing, but there's an elaborate funeral for Hamlet ordered by Fortinbras at the end of the play. This funeral is said to mirror the real funeral of English poet, Sir Philip Sydney that had happened in 1587.If we're going to appreciate Shakespeare's portrayal of Hamlet's funeral, then it becomes important to understand how funerals worked for Shakespeare's lifetime, what the steps and rights were involved in an official, or unofficial, service and what constituted a fitting tribute to the dead. Here today to take us through what funerals involved for the 16-17th century, why Sir Philip Sydney's service was so remarkable, and what all of this history means we should notice when we see funerals used for dramatic impact in Shakespeare's plays, is our guest, and author of “Death, Religion, and the Family in England 1480-1760", Ralph Houlbrooke.  Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

There are currently over two million graves in Israel. Prof. Alon Tal from Tel Aviv University and former member of the Knesset from the Blue and White Party, says that Israel doesn’t have enough land resources to accommodate burials as they currently exist. Speaking to reporter Arieh O’Sullivan, Tal says creative thought needs to be made about how we can preserve the harmony between the people of Israel, both living and dead, and the land of Israel.

VYS0046 | Ding Dong Merrily On High Strangeness - Vayse to Face to Face with Stephanie Quick and AP Strange: Christmas 2024 - Show Notes Ho, ho, holy shit that's another year gone and Christmas is here again! To mark the ever-increasing speed at which the years fly past in a blur of spiralling anxiety and gathering doom, Hine and Buckley invite two of the nicest, wisest and funniest people in Weirdosphere, Stephanie Quick and AP Strange, to help them celebrate away the winter blues. Drawing on the British tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, Hine, Buckley, Strange and Quick (also the title of the upcoming Vayse autobiography) work their way around the cardinal points, each telling a ghost story from the place in which they were born: the North and South of England and the East Coast and West Coast of the US. There are tales of a murderous jester who stalks the corridors of a Cumbrian castle to this day; a red haired woman who haunting a pirate-built cottage in New England; a missing bride at a Christmas wedding in a very haunted stately home in Hampshire; and a revolutionary Californian abolitionist who still throws nuts from trees over 120 years after her death... and they discuss three lesser known British winter traditions: Raymond Briggs' Snowman, ignoring Thanksgiving and moaning about the weather... (recorded 8 December 2024) Thanks to AP and Steph for preparing the stories and thanks to Keith for another year of show notes - follow the man on Blue Sky: @peakflow.bsky.social.

What can medieval burial practices reveal about societal values and beliefs? Dr. Eleanor Janega is joined by biological anthropologist Dr. Jo Buckberry, to explore this question.They discuss the secrets behind Sutton Hoo's majestic burial mounds, the intriguing presence of grave goods from brooches to cremation urns and change in customs as Britain embraced Christianity.

This episode delves into the Viking Age burial practices and examines claims made by the Ancient Astronaut crowd that suggest these customs are evidence of alien interference. Together with Professor Howard Williams, known as Archeodeath online, we explore the complexities of Norse burials and the significance of ship burials, which were often associated with high-status individuals. The discussion reveals that Viking funerals were not merely about sending the dead off into the stars, but rather about creating memorable communal experiences that reflected social status and identity. We also challenge the misconceptions perpetuated by popular media, highlighting the importance of grounding our understanding in archaeological evidence rather than sensational theories. Tune in as we unpack the rich tapestry of Viking mortuary practices and the meanings behind their rituals, offering a clearer perspective on the past.Find Professor Williams at these places:Blog: https://howardwilliamsblog.wordpress.com/about/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@archaeodeathYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@archaeodeath Order William's latest book here: https://www.sidestone.com/books/cremation-in-the-early-middle-agesContact:Website: https://diggingupancientaliens.comEmail: fredrik@diggingupancientaliens.comFacebook: facebook.com/Digging-up-Ancient-Aliens-108173641647111/Twitter: twitter.com/DUAncientAliensInstagram: instagram.com/digging_up_ancient_aliens/TikTok: tiktok.com/@digging_up_ancient_alienStore: https://diggingupancientaliens.com/merchBecome a supporter!

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the mysterious faces of Bélmez de La Moraleda. Since 1971, María Gómez Cámara's family residence has been plagued by mysterious faces. First, one appeared in the floor and María's husband and son pretty much merked it but soon enough, more would appear. The mayor got involved to ensure that the mysterious faces could be studied but study after study have conflicted each other and these faces, remain, unexplained. Could they be ghosts? Spirits visiting María? Purely coincidental markings? A hoax? Do we have a ghost artist on our hands? The problem is that many of these faces are in different styles and can't be fully explained by modern science. But can we explain them? All that and more on this week's file.     Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/butitwasaliens   Store: https://butitwasaliens.co.uk/shop/     Probe us: Email: butitwasaliens@gmail.com Instagram/Threads @ ButItWasAliens Twitter @ ButItWasAliens Facebook: @ ButItWasAliens - join Extraterrestrial Towers     Music:  Music created via Garageband.

Peluola Adewale, National Mobilization Officer of what he calls the Joint Action Front, tells VOA's James Butty, the 10 days of rage will continue until Saturday, and thereafter, the organizers will decide what happens next

Now that Israel has declared war on Lebanon essentially admitting that there will be untold numbers of deaths, it's important to point out that government officials have already said there will be no end to the war until Lebanon is destroyed. They said the same about Palestine. Now officials are admitting that there will be mass burials in the North of Israel in the face of their battle with Hezbollah, another intelligence agency creation much like Hamas which was created by Israel's Mossad. This escalation is meant to force us into a forever war, or World War 3 which will bring about a "Great Reset" as power shifts from the west to the east. This is something Israel views as "prophecy." Alongside Russia and Ukraine as well as China and Taiwan, it's clear that they want to enslave the world to a technocratic hell and they're using the military industrial complex to get us there via false flags.
