Trans rights are human rights, and human rights are trans rights. Classics should have no room for transphobia (including TERF transphobia) and zero tolerance of harassment. The greater your megaphone, the greater your responsibility to use it safely & humanely. #ClassicsTwitter

For #ReliefWednesday, a marble relief in the BM showing the Apotheosis of Homer, signed by Archelaos of Priene. It dates between 225-205 BCE & was found at Bovillae, but may have originated in Alexandria. Homer is seated at the bottom; Zeus is at the top.
