Marcus Aurelius said he would rather be remembered as a good man, than a great one. He was a great general, who won many great victories but was prouder of educating orphans, who typically ended up as slaves, to become civil servants. Such a man was Gudea of Lagash. If we could only find more of them.

In short use whichever you're most comfortable with. I prefer BCE and CE since I subconsciously knew it was mostly similar enough and I prefer being neutral.

Alessandro delivers a wonderful, insightful lecture on Artemisia's famous painting. Excellent presentation. Anyone who wants to know more about the life of the Baroque artist might consider watching Jennifer Dale's short film, "Becoming Artemisia," available free on youtube.

You said perfect square when you meant perfect circle. Perhaps perfect globe would be even better.
@ExploringArtwithAlessandro7 ай бұрын
no, I said "...the use of the two most perfect geometrical figures: circles and squares" and talking about the inside "...the internal space is so geometrically perfect to accommodate a perfect sphere..." "Globe" is not a geometrical object, the right name in geometry is "sphere"

Mesopotamia, the region encompassing modern-day Iraq, has been a cradle of civilization for millennia. This long history means numerous ethnic groups have likely come and gone over time.
