I mustn't let May go by without a nod to my 2009 article on the discovery, during the 19th century, of same-sex copulation among Maybugs (also known as Maybeetles, cockchafers, doodlebugs). Do look out for them at it in your garden! 🌈🌳

As an American in this , it's a particularly poignant time for reflection.

With the rising threat of extremism in , visiting the exhibit later today feels especially relevant.

Start at the temple of the ancient Mother Goddess, then walk past rock-cut shrines made by her devotees. See a cave in which a group was put under a spell and slept for centuries. End at this Korinthian port city with its markets and many temples. https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/turkey/ephesus/walk.html?s=mc

I recently visited the Roman-Germanic in , exploring the rich of the city. I summarized my experience in this post :

🌍 https://www.fabriziomusacchio.com/weekend_stories/told/2024-05-24-roman_legacy_in_cologne/

Dinnerware, 1st-3rd century AD, found in Cologne.
Agrippina the Elder (14 BC - 33 AD), 1st century AD, found: unknown. Vipsania Agrippina was a granddaughter of Emperor Augustus and married his great-nephew and designated successor Germanicus. As commander-in-chief of the Rhine troops, Germanicus and his family stayed in Cologne in the years 13-16 AD. His wife was instrumental in helping him put down a mutiny of the Rhine legions in 14 A.D. A year later, she gave birth to their daughter Agrippina the Younger in Cologne.

The realm of Korinthia spans from rugged mountains hosting mysterious temples honoring little-known gods, to sunny islands in a wine-dark sea. Learn to speak about bold actions in their tongue. #travel #history https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/greece/greek/active-participles.html?s=mc
