Apologies for the abnormal hiatus for the past few days, folks ... real life intruded to an extraordinary degree and I just couldn't keep off (yes, even the rogueclassicist nods) ... in any event, here's what the ClassiCarnies have been up to (and a pile of news items follow):
N.S. Gill tells us about some top Legendary Greek Mothers ... the Formation of the Delian League ... Praxiteles ... ten Greek Philosophers ...
Phil S. has a Patristics roundup ...
Gabriel Bodard reviews the new CIL website ...
Glaukopis comments on the series end of Rome ...
Stephen Carlson had an interesting item from Clement of Alexandria about Buddha ...
Peter Stothard was citing Classical comet precedents ...
Mary Beard hosts the History Carnival ... she'll be hanging out at the Getty Research Institute for the next while, it seems ...
Dorothy King has an item on a Phocaean recreation effort ... More Bactrian Gold stuff (and ivories too) ... some links about Marius ...
Irene Hahn had some info on the younger Drusus ...
JM had some interesting facts about slavery in ancient Rome ... and while I don't understand cricket at all, folks might be interested in his Roman First XI ...
Laura Gibbs' educational roundups continue ...
Michael Gilleland has an item from Ambrose Bierce's DD on Zeus ... idem Myrmidon ...
Ed Flinn continues to post his interesting coin collection ...
Troy is done, it seems ...
If you're trying to keep up with the Jesus Tomb thing, Mark Goodacre remains the blogger to be watching ... Steve Caruso's new Aramaic Blog also has some interesting items under the Jesus Son of Joseph rubric ...
Greg Schwender has posted the TOC for issue 159 of ZPE (in press) ...
Over at Archaeogate, there's an interesting article in Italian: L'incesto dinastico tolemaico e i matrimoni endogamici nell'Egitto greco-romano: alcuni aspetti* - di Marco Rolandi
That'll have to do for today ... I have other stuff to catch up with now (all my online Latin students!) ... as usual, the latest Explorator has been posted ... the weekly version of our Ancient World on Television listings should follow later tonight.
