07/02/2024 (Hour 30)

Today Helen and I went down to the old lifeboat shed to go through what we had in storage ^w^

she is so kind and was concerned that I found it boring taking note of the records in the archives, lucky for her I am a huge nerd with a love for organisation! I had a blast ^w^

we returned back to the main archives with some documents of interest, building plans from the 1930s

this is how i orginised them in the end but i tried hard to try get them all flat in one box

Attempt #1 there was still 1/3 of the documents left to pack but they wouldn't fit vertically in the space below, like honestly there was less than a centimetre difference T-T

Afterwards, I made a digital copy of the different documents of interest in the old lifeboat archive (what I was there to take note of lol)

and then we got a visitor of interest! a very special girl <3

Tebot my beloved <3

edit: the document storage is temporary, we will put them in acidic-free, flexible cardboard files and then put them into a strong box and neatly into the archives...

somewhere ( ._.)

Ahhh this was actually just a page for testing out different colors for another drawing, but it turned out so nicely that i wanted to post it! I am on a hyperfocus train with ancient egypt stuff rn and i found those goooorgeous acrylic paints in my room. So it was perfect for this kinda stuff <33 I then had the idea to try out gold ink and i am in loooove! I def wanna use metallic accents more often now, it just makes things sooo much prettier. (shoutout to my mom for borrowing me her old egypt books as references and for infecting me with her passion for this topic as a child <33 )

Writing Cuneiform. A skilled scribe could make imprints into clay extremely fast, almost machine-like, and with clay being an easily accessible material with no need for ink, Cuneiform was a practical writing method for over 3000 years.

What does this actually mean?

Its a new tumblr badge

Hello! This is the sign 𒂂 dugud, which has several meanings including "weight, heavy, massive", "cloud" and "important, to be important". I assume it's being used in the latter meaning, designating the person as important here on tumblr dot com!

The Sennacherib prism, commissioned by the Assyrian king in the 600s BCE. Its ten sides contain records of his conquests and achievements in cuneiform. The record culminates with Sennarcherib's 15-month siege and destruction of Babylon.

“You shit bucket of a farter!” (SAA 3 30)

This ancient Neo-Assyrian “diss track,” framed as a magical incantation, offers a series of slurs (some misogynistic and homophobic) against a Mr. Bel-eţir.  It seems to conclude with an aggressive invitation: “fight me!”

There are multiple Bel-eṭirs in the historical record, but this is probably the same son of Ibâ who had a satire of a birth-legend written about him.

Although the tablet is well-preserved, many of the phrases are obscure; I have used italics to indicate where I am less certain of my translation.

…

Incantation:

Mr. Bel-eṭir, you twofold prison fucktoy, twofold soggy, twofold staring, son of Ibâ, absent epoch, shit bucket of a farter, second-rate clan, slave of a dead god, house whose star has vanished from the sky, maidservant, woman, slave of Lady Balihitu, beard among fucked-out women, “Mr. Baby-boy,” much-maligned man.

Mr. Ammanappu provided your whitewash, saying: “First of all, his house is in shadow, starting at the top.”  He swore by the Lord, “I will not let go until I have fucked him!”

Let go of what Mr. Ammanappu has!  Don’t chase after what Mr. Tamru has!  Stay away from Mr. Ammanipite!  Keep your crotch away from Mr. Haimbi!

Now I have spoken to you.  On account of this, rise up against me!
