It's official! Found out today that I've passed my MA in Ancient History and Classical Culture with a Merit😁I'm now technically a Master of Arts!

A big chunk of those marks came from my thesis on Achaemenid Queens. Big up Atossa, Amestris, Parysatis, and Stateira!

@RowanGDurrant @Afro_Herper The Mushussu might have been a lizard-like creature, or an early depiction of a dragon. The Ishtar Gate from Babylon shows one off quite nicely. Has a similar astronomical history to the Greek Hydra too!

[Dylan Rudling @DylanRud98]

Completed my MA thesis in Ancient History and Classical Culture! 20k words, 3 months, and 2 academic courses along the way, but I've made it to the other side 👨‍🎓

Big up @SUAncientWorld for everything, and looking forward to the year ahead with @APLPteach and my PGCE training!

This is an example of a preserved #Sumerian canal that I recommend to be considered as #heritage and should be #documented and care of. Se how straight is it and to me it's so beautiful 🤗
