Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey has sparked a resurgence of interest in the Sea Peoples. But who were they and should they be blamed for the fall of the Bronze Age?

@TGrogan268173 @PenitentPond @trad_west_ I appreciate the support. And that you take the time to correct inaccurate narratives.

I had the pleasure of speaking to @CNN about #theodyssey and Homer's influence on the gospels. I am more sympathetic to MacDonald than perhaps comes across here, but an interesting take on this "debate," including @candidamoss excellent work on book culture and enslavement!

The State Department said ​it takes "full responsibility" for "hastily" altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference that mislabeled every single country it highlighted.

An analysis by Reuters found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.

@Mr_Elephant2004 @nanotwt @cardamomkiss No sorry this isn’t quite right. She was denied tenure. He was given a year of suspension. But he still teaches at Yale.
