The Arkadiko Bridge was built over 3000 years ago during the Mycenaean Period. Potentially the oldest bridge in existence, it is still used today.

The moment of extraction of a 2nd-century A.D. marble head believed to depict Apollo from the inner wall of Fethiye Castle in Türkiye. This rare find is now on display at Fethiye Museum.

@AilishSinclair Great. Hope you’re having a lovely day

How yew doing? #ThickTrunkTuesday

@Disc_light Idyllic indeed

Got back last night and just finished uploading my photos to my server. Just picked out one, the beautiful village of Water Newton. Looks idyllic and, apart from the noise of the A1 it really is. Imagine living at that house!

Roman Cavalry Helmet, AD 125-175.

@caputmundiHeidi Once more, built by Agrippa and restored by Hadrian

Adoro la tranquilla strada dietro il #Pantheon , con i resti dell'antica Basilica di Nettuno… Via della Palombella #Roma 🤍

@CarlyanneMcCon1 @StarCreations I hope so too

@StarCreations The great tits fledged recently, they lived along the fence a bit. I missed them fledge but I keep watch these little ones hoping to see them fly off into the world.

Little blue tit is still feeding it’s babies, they should be fledging soon 🙂💙🕊️

@fugitiveink Hahaha

I had assumed that this was a planter — now I see that it was always really a bespoke dust-bath venue for silkie hens

The National Archaeological Museum in Athens has so many amazing treasures from all over Greece that it's overwhelming in scale, a bit like the British Museum or the Louvre. The Jockey of Artesimion was the highlight for me with incredible detail on the 2,100 yearol old bronze.

@AraceliRego How beautiful

Ancient Egyptian scarab made from the rare semi-precious stone lapis

Semplice bellezza… #Madonnelle quasi dimenticata in un angolo di Piazza di San Giovanni della Malva… Busto di Madonna #Trastevere #Roma 🤍

@CarlyanneMcCon1 Lovely

@beatricegroves1 Beautiful

The starry symmetry of wood avens💛 Once a popular medical flower, its other name - 'Herb Bennet' - is a corruption of 'herba benedicta' (the blessed herb)🌼😇🌼

@fakehistoryhunt @chapps Amazing

This is so good. And no, it's not AI. Timelapse of the building of the 4,500-year-old Neolithic hall near Stonehenge. Mesmerising. Imagine what it would be like if we could show this video to the ancestors. © English Heritage

@DrJEBall Intriguing

A #Roman mosaic portrait of a woman - probably not a famous or mythical woman, just an ordinary person. It was found in #Pompeii, & made in the late C1st BC - so she probably died before the devastation Vesuvius would unleash on her city in AD 79 #Archaeology #MosaicMonday

@kateStrasdin @MUSA_Wien I liked gazed longingly.

A shining ball of sunshine to grace some far distant party, yellow silk overlaid with gold embroidered net. Perhaps she waltzed in the arms of a willing partner or gazed longingly at somebody forbidden @MUSA_Wien #fashionhistory

@kateStrasdin @MuseeDior A great lady

Hot coloured chiffon blazes in layers, caught at neck and wrist with jewelled bands. Marc Bohan for Dior created this 1967 Bayadère dress famously worn by Grace Kelly who looks wistful here @MuseeDior #fashionhistory

@fugitiveink Sounds as though you enjoyed yourself

There was quite a breeze by the sea, and the water was lovely and cold — the walk from Cley back to Blakeney, though, was definitely on the warm side

@beatricegroves1 Just lovely

Sapphire-bright speedwell on the #Oxford canal💙 Germander speedwell derives from the Greek 'chamandrua' - ‘oak of the ground’ - as its leaves resemble oak-leaves💙🌿💙 #BlueMonday
