when was the last time i posted notes? in the midst of my chaotic life, i'm restarting my in-depth study on ancient egypt. i stopped working on my screenplay because real life got in the way, but maybe this will inspire me to get back into writing :)

As we approach the end of this year, I fell down my usual rabbit hole of looking at the great color work of Nathan Fowkes (Prince of Egypt, Sinbad, Shrek 4, Puss in Boots ect.) and ended up starting one of his courses on introducing color moods. So I've made a little hallway in Blender real quick, took a screencap and had some fun with transforming it into a rough study piece

calling all academics on classics tumblr!

what are some interesting articles you've read recently? i'm hungry for some good content to read over the university break and fully open to taking suggestions!

i generally specialise as a hellenist, though i do dabble in egyptology from time to time, and latinist studies if they're related to the greek world in some way, but i'm open to anything!

Everyone on the program: omg cool mummies!!!

Me, literally holding back tears: they are so far from home. Are their souls scared? Has anyone even offered them bread in the afterlife?

#important to note: some ancient Egyptian tombs contain prayers to give the deceased food in the afterlife meant to be read aloud #we read aloud a prayer (NOT SPELL. I AM AGAINST CALLING IT A SPELL) in my class two years ago #we're going to have a 'discussion' on the ethics of displaying mummies and I had to start taking the anti anxiety meds again so I Do Not Cry #while this happens #god. i can't go into Egyptology #day one on the program and I Know Now. I cannot do it for Various Reasons #I'm still doing classics (Ptolemaic period counts as Classics not egyptology) but I Cannot and Will Not interact with modern Egyptian #bureaucracy #tw death #??? #i have no fucking clue what to tag this #it's apparently a controversial opinion to say that Egypt is in Africa #a dutch museum got an exhibit SHUT DOWN for PROMOTING AFROCENTRISM. EGYPT IS IN AFRICA #like this is super cool and very important to my feild of study of museum work in general #but yeahhhh i am Too Passionate and full of Righteous Indignation for egyptology #screaming crying throwing uppppppp #and idet and ruiu aren't even THERE

It is ahistorical and unethical and anti-intellectual and completely inaccurate to directly translate modern binary frameworks of “problematic”/“unproblematic” onto things from like thousands of years ago.

ANCIENT history is HIGHLY complicated and nuanced and complex. There is no one right or wrong answer. No one ultimate source to end all sources. No one perspective.

I’m not saying you cannot critique ancient history - you absolutely can. I do. People have been criticizing history for as long as we have had history. But I am saying that it is not simple. It’s not good vs bad, right vs wrong, unproblematic vs problematic. That’s not how that works.

You cannot make logically valid and sound criticisms of subjects and topics that you don’t have knowledge about, though. And if you do start research, you will instantly realize that the truth of history is infinitely more complicated than you thought.

I’m not going to go into all the different ways that this could happen because I’m tired and I have other things to do today, but historical record is filled with all SORTS of biases; survivorship bias, outright lying, propaganda, actively destroying what doesn’t fit a narrative, mistranslating, losing things in a fire.

Do your research to learn about the part of ancient history you want to bring a critique against. Otherwise you are participating in that same destruction and obliteration of history by sawing off everything that doesn’t fit the specific binary framework you want to use today.
