A 2175-Years-Old 'Dancing Moses' Statue Discovered in Turkey

The latest discovery in the ongoing excavations in the Ancient City of Stratonikeia, known as the city of eternal loves and gladiators, was a “Dancing Moses” statue, an iconic figure from ancient mythology.

According to the statement made by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the statue found in the works carried out in the ancient city is this unearthed statue is the sole original Hellenistic period piece attributed to a work famously replicated during the Roman period.

Today the ancient city is located in Eskihisar village of the Yatagan district of Mugla Province. It is one of the cities of the Ancient Caria Region. With an area of ​​7 km, it is one of the largest marble-built cities in the world. It is the only city-state with two major sanctuaries dedicated to Hekate and Zeus.

Historically, the “Dancing Moses,” considered one of the muses born from Zeus and Mnemosyne’s union, was reputedly crafted by Philiskos, a renowned sculptor from the second century B.C. While there are numerous Roman period reproductions of this piece throughout Anatolia and Greece, the newly discovered statue from Stratonikeia stands out as the only authentic work by Philiskos from the Hellenistic era.

Information about Philiskos, the renowned sculptor from the Hellenistic Period, is quite scarce. Philiskos was known for his work in bronze sculpture, particularly in creating statues and sculptures of athletes and gods. He was active during the 4th century BCE and hailed from Rhodes, a center for artistic innovation during that era.

Philiskos is often mentioned in historical records and texts for his mastery in portraying movement and anatomical accuracy in his sculptures. Unfortunately, none of his original works have survived, leaving us to rely on written accounts and references by other ancient authors to understand his artistic prowess and contributions to the field of sculpture during the Hellenistic Period.

Therefore, the discovery of the statue in Stratonikeia is significant for archaeologists because it demonstrates Philiskos’ artistic presence in the ancient city during the Hellenistic period.

The statue and pedestal were found during excavations inside the frigidarium of the Roman bath in Stratonikeia. However, the head and arms of the sculpture were notably absent from the findings.

Previously, a replica of this revered statue was discovered in the Roman baths of the ancient city of Perge, as well as another in Rhodes, demonstrating its widespread replication during the Roman period.

The statue will be exhibited at the Muğla Museum after the work to be done.

I can’t explain it but Rick and the President have the same vibes as cartoon hero/supervillain duos who are enemies 9-5 and friends the rest of the time

Which of your OCs would happily drink a potion (or sci fi equivalent) that made them gain weight?

I’d say Adonis, Azure, Richie (in secret), Gloria, and Mel Agi would happily drink a potion, or something equal to it in their universe, that made them gain weight.

I’d say my still nameless slime gal wouldn’t even need a potion to instantly fain weight. But she’d probably still drink it anyway to possibly double the effect.

EDIT: Kaida would also be happy to drink the potion!

The mohegan people domesticated foxes btw.

Mostly grey foxes who rolled up and were like we live here now. And they did.

Red foxes were more mischievous, they liked to steal the eggs from the turkeys and laugh about it. They say that the foxes thought it was a game.

Intomysoul 😭

I came, I appeared around you, imperceptibly, that's all.

You just left and left in your own way, what does it matter to anyone?

Come on, if I said he didn't put it deep down, it would be a lie.

Even without you, I'm free, alone in the left lane

I woke up at home alone happy how did this happen

It's good, you left without taking the shit out of it.

I lit my cigarette and walked silently towards the door

I came to myself, now you're not there right under my nose

Even without you, I'm free, alone in the left lane

Even without you, I'm free, alone in the left lane

I came, I appeared around you, imperceptibly, that's all.

You just left and left in your own way, what does it matter to anyone?

Come on, if I said he didn't put it deep down, it would be a lie.

Even without you, I'm free, alone in the left lane

Alone in the left lane

Alone in the left lane

Alone in the left lane

The big dance

Inspired, no doubt, by the urgent rhythms of spring, the local turkeys have begun their breeding dance. 

The mature toms puff out their chests, strut like runway models and gobble their love songs The jakes (immature males) observe the action from a respectful distance, knowing they don’t have a chance at the real action but picking up pointers on the ways of courtship.

Meanwhile, the females do their best not to notice. Typically hens will lay one egg per day over a two-week period. Their poults will be hatch by mid-summer.

VA - Turkey & Syria Earthquake Relief Comp. Vol.1

Complied by Müstesna Records & Dance Music From Planet Earth (Ransom Note) www.theransomnote.com A call from Turkey and the world to all music enthusiasts! On February 6, 2023 Turkey and Syria were struck by two massive earthquakes (7,7 - 7,6 on the richter scale) in one day. The severity of the earthquake, the size of the area, the demographic and the large number of people being caught unprepared, combined with the harsh weather conditions, dramatically heightened the effects of this disaster. Since then a lot of local and global efforts have been put together to gather and transfer urgent help to the area, however these efforts are unfortunately inadequate in the face of the size of this catastrophic event. In a bid to help our country and its neighbours, Müstesna Records (TR) have decided to put together a relief compilation in collaboration with Ransom Note on their Dance Music From Planet Earth compilation label (UK). As of now 48 artists from around the globe have contributed some of their beautiful work. The compilation will be released in two parts with the first part shared on Wednesday 1st March. If we all unite as music listeners, nightlife enthusiasts and all those in between, we will be stronger in size and strength. Music brings us all together, regardless of our geographic location. We hope that everyone falling under this roof believes in sharing beautiful collective memories, as well as tragedies. Please help us support the ones who believe that they are part of a global collective family so we can come together on better days… The money raised from this campaign will be donated to birkirabiryuva.org/en/ (TR) and Molham Team (Syria).

There is also a Vol. 2:
