@DrvthruStacks @histories_arch Everyone knows that Egyptians were dark skinned.We all know that. You were just being lied to your whole life. You were told that all white people are evil and history erasers. We are not. We do read and educate ourselves. We dont all just blindly follow the Grand Wizard!

@histories_arch Anyone notice what hue the toe was created in … the false narratives are melting away

The 3,000-year-old "Cairo Toe," discovered in Egypt, showcases the advanced medical and craftsmanship skills of ancient civilizations, serving as one of the oldest functional prostheses in history. In the necropolis of Sheikh 'Abd el-Qurna, west of Luxor, Egypt, archaeologists uncovered a remarkable artifact that offers a glimpse into the ingenuity of ancient Egyptian medicine and craftsmanship: the Cairo Toe, a prosthesis dating back approximately 3,000 years. The prosthesis, found attached to the remains of a woman believed to be the daughter of an ancient priest, is considered one of the oldest functional prosthetic devices ever discovered. Made from a combination of materials, likely including wood and leather, the toe was designed with extraordinary precision, adjusted multiple times to ensure a perfect fit for the wearer. This discovery highlights not only the advanced anatomical knowledge of ancient Egyptians but also their dedication to both functionality and aesthetics. The prosthesis was crafted to look natural, reflecting the cultural importance placed on appearance and dignity, even in cases of physical disability. The ability to walk comfortably with such a device underscores the level of expertise achieved by Egyptian artisans and medical practitioners. The Cairo Toe is more than an isolated artifact—it represents the ancient Egyptians' holistic approach to medicine, their technical sophistication, and their deep understanding of the human body. This extraordinary prosthesis provides a powerful testament to the civilization’s commitment to improving the quality of life for its people, even in an era long before modern medical advancements. #archaeohistories

@aschesiegen @archeohistories No we dont. Fuck that women!

@archeohistories Privilege, servitude blah blah. I bet the two men enjoyed it too. You must be a woman. There are few things more appealing to men than to show off their strength and endurance to a woman especially one far above their station.

Mountain guides carry a rich lady who wanted to climb Vesuvius in 1910, Kingdom of Italy... In 1910, as Europe’s upper classes flocked to the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, one wealthy woman made the journey in a rather unconventional way — carried on the shoulders of two mountain guides. The photograph, colorized from the early 20th century, shows the social hierarchy of the time etched into a single frame. The woman, dressed elegantly in dark fabric and a feathered hat, sits poised as the men beneath her strain up the volcanic terrain. For the elite, such climbs were adventures to be experienced, not endured. For the guides, it was labor — a blend of servitude and strength performed in the shadow of a volcano that had buried civilizations. By 1910, Vesuvius was a tourist attraction, but also an active threat; it would erupt again just four years later. This image is both absurd and telling — a portrait of privilege ascending on the backs of endurance. The 1906 eruption of Vesuvius, just four years earlier, destroyed several nearby towns and even forced the temporary closure of the 1908 Olympic Games in Rome. © History in Colour #archaeohistories
