The Iliad gets its name from Greek Īlion, the alternative name for the city of Troy.
Because of poetic metre and a city called 'Wilusa' in Hittite, we believe that the Greek name used to be Wilion. This changed with the loss of the sound /w/, represented by the archaic letter ϝ.
I completely agree, Vivaldi!
Venetian composer #AntonioLucioVivaldi (1678-1741) wrote this Concerto for violin in '#trombamarina' in G Major c.1701-1741.

I was inspired to search for this #manuscript while listening to the wonderful recordings of Concerti for #violin in tromba marina RV 221 (D Major) & RV 311 (G Major), performed by @AdeSerenissima with the @LaSerenissimaUK ensemble. 🎼🎻🎶🎵

‘You can learn a lot about your neighbours from their dustbins, and the dustbins of the ancient Greeks bring out all my curiosities. What did the Greeks do about garlic breath? What names did they give their cows?’

@flauritzen@ThomasCoward3 I wonder if it should say “Our Latest Tutorials”, rather than ‘Last’? (However, if this is usual in U.K. English, it is new to me as an American English speaker!)
