#OTD 213 years ago, Louis Lucien Bonaparte (1813–1891) was born 🎂 He was Napoleon Bonaparte’s nephew and was briefly also a French politician. Later he became an expert on Cornish and other Celtic languages, and particularly on the dialect cartography of Basque. #LinguisticBirthdays #Histlx

Ce n'est pas faux.

Mirad qué impresionante. La cabeza de una bellísima kore griega (principios s. V a.C.) ha sido hallada en la antigua ciudad etrusca de Vulci, en la región italiana de Lacio. Se trata de un descubrimiento excepcional, dada la escasez de este tipo de esculturas fuera de Grecia 🧵👇 #AncientBlueSky

The new year coming up, I'm thinking of whether I should start doing a bit of online teaching of some ancient languages. Mainly, of course, Ugaritic, but other stuff would be possible as well (Hurrian, perhaps a bit of Hittite or Akkadian). Any spontaneous interest? Just checking as of now.
