The ferocious five 🐕

These miniature clay mastiffs were buried to guard a property from devils and demons. This pack – once pigmented and decorated – was found beneath a palace doorway at Nineveh, northern Iraq https://t.co/QWvAAJcbRr

Exhibitions are made through conversations with colleagues. We were lucky that many of those colleagues were also willing to write for the catalogue. Today’s highlight—@ScribeEAE on what those cuneiform glass recipes tell us about glass making AND writing. Thanks @ScribeEAE !

1. The news of a potential biosig in Venus’s atmosphere has resurfaced Carl Sagan’s 1967 Nature article as the origin of the idea of microbes living in the dense clouds. But in 1951 German physicist Heinz Haber working for USAF suggested "a biological aerosol" on Venus. @SIFKnow
