Some tidbits ...

A bit of hype for the AIA side of the conference:

• A good night out began at home in ancient Greece (New Scientist)
• Ancient Greeks 'loved a good night in' say researchers (Telegraph)
• For ancient Greeks ‘good hedonistic nights out’ were enjoyed at home (News Post)
• Ancient Greeks' homes may have doubled as bars and brothels (Guardian)
• Boozy ancient Greeks 'like Homer Simpson' (Metro)

Not sure this sort of 'reconstruction' is in accordance with my taste:

• Reviving Ancient Scythopolis (Live Design)


Interesting modern art installation in Rome which makes use of a pile of Latin sayings:

• QUO VADIS? (ArtNet)


Another review of Worshiping Women (I think it's the same that we've already seen):

• Liberating ancient Greek women from myth (Washington Post)


Some ideas for teachers:

• Redwood students bring Greek history to life (Mercury News)


Elsewhere, I note the full version of the Gnomon database (it's huge) is now available for downloading (!):
