My main take away is that humans LOOOOOOOOVE being whimsical.

That, and purposeful.

I grew up near The Medicine Wheel in Wyoming, and have a deep respect for their culture. Im curious if they were for similar purposes!?

The stone labyrinths of Bolshoi Zayatsky Island are a group of 13 or 14 labyrinths on Bolshoy Zayatsky Island, one of the Solovetsky Islands in Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia. All the labyrinths are concentrated in an area of 0.4 km2 on the western part of the island. They differ from other similar structures in Fennoscandia and the Russian North by being concentrated in a small area. About 500 such structures have been described in Sweden and Finland. See Troy Town for details. (Closest article: Stone labyrinths of Bolshoi Zayatsky Island, ~1.20 miles; found via undefined-mile search)

Verify on Wikipedia: Stone labyrinths of Bolshoi Zayatsky Island

Plant a tree by exploring moreThe vast majority of coastal stone labyrinths in Northern Europe date to the Middle Ages. [1] 13] In 2006, a research group from Saint Petersburg, lacking standard archaeological study, theorized that the Bolshoi Zayatsky labyrinths are about 2500 years old, according to their orientation, their supposed ritual use, and changes in the direction of the zenith on the solstice throughout history. [4]

Apart from the labyrinths, there are more than 850 heaps of boulders on Bolshoi Zayatsky Island, plus numerous other stone settings such as a stone symbol with radial spokes, possibly representing the sun. An enormous pile of stones on Sopka Hill, in the eastern part of the island, does not include any labyrinths.

The function of the stone settings is unclear. One suggestion is that they may have symbolised a border between this world and the underworld and the labyrinth may have been used for specific rituals to help the souls of the dead travel to another world. Another hypothesis is that the settings may have served as a model for complex fishing equipment.Photo, no description

The King of Egypt as a Lion Subduing a Nubian
carved gold, Egyptian Blue pigment
c. 1279-1213 BCE
Reign of Ramesses II
Ancient Egypt

#ancient #art #ancientart #propaganda #ancientegypt #RamessesII #ideology #conquest #newkingdom #egypt #gold #EgyptianBlue #pigment #flywhisk #whip #MetMuseum #NYC

This piece, fashioned from Egyptian Blue and gold, presents a striking image of the head of a Nubian man engulfed by the jaws of a lion.
Egyptian blue is the world's oldest known synthetic pigment, created over 5,000 years ago in ancient Egypt to mimic expensive natural stones like lapis lazuli and turquoise. Made by heating a precise mixture of silica (sand), copper (like malachite or metal filings), calcium (lime/chalk), and an alkali flux (such as natron or plant ash). Heated in a kiln at temperatures between 800°C and 1000°C (about 1,470°F to 1,830°F) for hours to form a glassy blue compound, which was then cooled, crushed, and ground into a powder paint.
Though compact in scale, the piece is monumental in its ideological intent. Most likely the terminal of a ceremonial fly whisk or whip, the handle is more than decorative; it is a potent visual expression of royal power and Ancient Egyptian supremacy.
The lion, sculpted in lustrous gold and detailed with stylised precision, symbolises the pharaoh himself, a living god and the ultimate authority over Egypt and its dominions. Its grip upon the Nubian's head is not merely violent but
symbolic, embodying Egypt's dominance over its southern neighbours and reiterating the pharaoh's divine role as protector and conqueror.
The object is said to originate from Qantir, in the eastern Delta region of Egypt, the site of ancient Pi-Ramesses, the grand capital city established by Ramesses II. In the king's day, this area would have been a flourishing centre of political power, military activity, and artistic production. Situated strategically near the route to the Levant, Pi-Ramesses was both a royal residence and a critical base for Egypt's northern campaigns. Its palatial complexes, temples, and extensive workshops made it one of the most
important urban centres of the New Kingdom.
This object is now on display at the Met Museum, NYC, after being gifted by the Norbert Schimmel Trust in 1989.

The photo shows a wooden horse head bearing a piece of medieval face armor.  The eye is circled in red and a red leaf-like emblem stretches down the side of the horse's face. The horse's ears are covered by red armor.

- It's handy how ancient sea-beds sometimes end up at land level - a bit easier for researchers to access. I love these stories
