„Fundierte Empirie wäre […] anzuerkennen, dass der Wettbewerbsnachteil deutscher Hochschulen & Wissenschaftseinrichtungen sicher nicht in zu viel Diversitätsförderung oder ihrem gesellschaftlichen Engagement besteht, sondern in dysfunktionalen & intransparenten wissenschaftlichen Stellenstrukturen.“

A charming #Roman enamelled fibula (a pin for fastening garments) in the form of an #owl.

Found in the civilian settlement of the Saalburg fort.

Nations priced out of Big AI are building with frugal models Amid a widening global divide in AI adoption, low-cost AI models that can deliver sovereignty and efficiency with a smaller environmental footprint are gaining ground.

“Frugal AI” might be the more important story than frontier models.

Smaller, open-weight systems → less compute, less energy, more sovereignty and deployable where Big Tech infrastructure doesn’t exist.

SARCOPHAGUS WITH THE RAPE OF PERSEPHONE, 160-180 CE. GALLERIE DEGLI UFFIZI

This splendid C2 CE sarcophagus in Pentelic marble begins and ends at both sides with Horæ, goddesses of the seasons. But the movement in this continuous scene goes rightward. The central conflict involves Athena, who is trying to dissuade Hades from kidnapping his niece. He's not interested. Persephone is swooning in his arms and an Eros flutters over her outstretched arm, as a sign that Hades is doing this for love. Below the chariot's rearing horses, the goddess Tellus, the Earth, is also raising a hand in dismay. In front of the chariot is Hermes Psychopompos, leader of souls to the Underworld. This subject was popular as a reference to circular time and the possibility of a return from death. To the left, Aphrodite is tugging at Athena's shield: love as the enemy of wisdom. Behind Aphrodite, two of Persephone's friends are objecting. At left is the chariot of Demeter, pulled by two fantastic serpents. She's in hot pursuit of her brother, but won't get to him in time to save her daughter from his clutches.

For #SarcophagusSaturday we have this marvellous #sarcophagus in the #Uffizi in #Florence, full of movement, showing the seizing of #Persephone by #Hades, a metaphor for the soul's journey to the #Underworld. This dates from 160-180 CE and comes from the #Medici collections. #AncientBluesky 🏺

Close-up detail of a Samian ware pottery vessel showing a raised relief of a rabbit or hare crouched in profile, facing left. The animal appears to be nibbling on a dandelion, with its long ears upright and front paws extended. The reddish-brown surface of the pottery is smooth and glossy, with a central vertical crack running through the image. Decorative arches and floral motifs frame the scene

This mosaic depicts snails in a basket (presumably waiting to be cooked and eaten). This may explain why one has already escaped and another is making a break for it.

The so-called Green Caesar from Egypt is a posthumous bust of Julius Caesar depicted as a statesman dressed in a toga. Dated AD 1 - 50. The eye inlays are modern. Classically toned down and idealised in contrast to earlier Caesar portraits, this portrait was adapted to the taste of the early Imperial Age.

Julius Caesar was assassinated #OnThisDay in 44 BC, stabbed 23 times by senators at the Theatre of Pompey. He was later deified, and a temple was built in his honour in the forum. People still leave flowers at his funeral site.

An adorable #Roman shoe, made for a #baby too young to walk. The shoe imitates the footwear of Roman soldiers (caligae). The cut-out design would have shown off the kid’s socks!
