Flipboard Science Desk<p>In A.D. 79, a man who died in Mount Vesuvius' eruption near Pompeii had a rare transformation: His brain seemingly turned into glass. Scientists haven’t agreed on the reason, but a team of researchers offers this explanation: The pyroclastic flows must have been immediately preceded by a superheated cloud of ash that first rapidly heated and then rapidly cooled the man's brain as it dissipated. Scary thought. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@LiveScience" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>LiveScience</span></a></span> has more:</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/9xb7TM" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/9xb7TM</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Humans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Humans</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Brain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brain</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Vesuvius" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vesuvius</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Archeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Archeology</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Romans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Romans</span></a></p>

Women From History BOT~ Women in Sparta, part II ~ <br> <br> Although Athens is frequently referenced as the “birthplace of democracy”, Athenian women had no voice in politics or their husband’s business whereas Spartan women participated freely in almost every aspect of their city-state’s political and social life. Women in Athens were relegated to the background except for their participation in certain religious festivals and rituals. An Athenian girl was raised to learn how to weave from her mother and care for children and the home. <br> <br> Through liaisons with men other than their husbands, Spartan women could also acquire control of more than one home and surrounding lands, and many became wealthy landowners. There were a significant number of widows in Sparta who had lost husbands and sons in the wars but never had to worry about survival because they owned the land and knew how to make it profitable.<br> <br> Although some Athenian women are mentioned as merchants, potters, or pursuing other careers, they were routinely secluded from men (possibly even in the home) and had no legal recourse in the courts, limited economic power, and no political voice. A female Spartan had all of these rights and were brought up from childhood with the understanding they had as much to contribute to the state as men.<br> <br> Painting : Spartan Women defending themselves against the Messenians, by Jean Francois Jacques Le Barbier<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sparta?src=hash" title="#sparta" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sparta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/antiquity?src=hash" title="#antiquity" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antiquity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/greekantiquity?src=hash" title="#greekantiquity" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#greekantiquity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/archeology?src=hash" title="#archeology" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#archeology</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/history?src=hash" title="#history" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" title="#art" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/arthistory?src=hash" title="#arthistory" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arthistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/painting?src=hash" title="#painting" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#painting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenfromhistory?src=hash" title="#womenfromhistory" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#womenfromhistory</a>
Women From History BOT~ Women in Sparta, part I ~ <br> <br> Spartan women had more rights and enjoyed greater autonomy than women in any other Greek city-state of the Classical Period (5th-4th centuries BCE). Women could inherit property, own land, make business transactions, and were better educated than women in ancient Greece in general. Unlike Athens, where women were considered second-class citizens, Spartan women were said to rule their men.<br> <br> Aristotle, who spent most of his adult life in Athens, criticized the independence and influence of Spartan women in his Politics, claiming that women’s autonomy in Sparta was responsible for its decline. But the equality of the sexes in Sparta actually made the city-state stronger and more efficiently run than others.<br> <br> The laws of Sparta were reformed by the king Lycurgus (l. c. 9th century BCE) and emphasized equality among all citizens. Girls were given the same physical fitness regimen as boys and were educated at the same level at home (while boys would attend a public school). The subjugated class of people known as helots took care of menial labor, allowing a female Spartan to concentrate on what Lycurgus believed their most important role: motherhood. Spartan women were famously proud of their children who were expected to honor the city-state through virtuous behavior. At the same time, women had the responsibility of running the farm or estate, managing finances, and operating businesses as the men were frequently away at war.<br> <br> The purpose of sex within marriage was to create strong, healthy children, but women were allowed to take male lovers to accomplish this same end. Same-sex relationships among men and women were for pleasure and personal fulfillment. These relationships were regarded as natural as long as both parties had consented. <br> <br> Painting : A spartan woman giving a shield to her son, by Jean-Jacques-François Le Barbier<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sparta?src=hash" title="#sparta" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sparta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/antiquity?src=hash" title="#antiquity" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antiquity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/greekantiquity?src=hash" title="#greekantiquity" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#greekantiquity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/archeology?src=hash" title="#archeology" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#archeology</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/history?src=hash" title="#history" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" title="#art" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/arthistory?src=hash" title="#arthistory" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arthistory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/painting?src=hash" title="#painting" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#painting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/womenfromhistory?src=hash" title="#womenfromhistory" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#womenfromhistory</a>

Bob Tregilus<p>I think I'm liking my new method for enhancing very weathered petroglyphs. I'm using the combination drawn and parametric masks in a second Darktable exposure module instance. First I paint in where I want the mask. Then I adjust it using the parametric functions. Then I lighten the faded petoglyphs. What do you think? Does this image look too manipulated or does it look fairly natural?</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Archeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Archeology</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/RockArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RockArt</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Desert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Desert</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Art</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Photography</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Darktable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Darktable</span></a></p>
