"Ultimately, they're people making choices." A riff on the human Alexander, not the myth, and why I (personally) find him interesting. I think we lose a great deal when we mythologize him. #ancientbluesky #classicbluesky #alexanderthegreat

"Odi et amo. quare id faciam fortasse requiris.
nescio, sed fieri sentio et excrucior.'"
I hate you and I love you. Why do I do this, perhaps you ask.
I do not know, but I feel it happening and I am tortured.

One of the most interesting places in Perigueux is this playground. Why is that? Just look at the shape it makes. It follows the silhouette of the ancient arena of the Roman amphitheatre

This is a video I did with Classical Numismatists on Mithradates VI. One of the most interesting people in history. Absolutely should give it a watch!

Check out this base of a statue from Florentia Iliberritana (Granada, Spain). Nowadays, you can find it at the Archaeological and Ethnological Museum of Granada, which (let's be honest) leaves a lot to be desired.

This is an incredible video that Classic Numimatics put together about a Bactrian coin I owned. One of the nicest coins I’ve held!
