2,100-year-old burial of Aphrodite 'priestess' discovered in Russia

Russian archaeologists have unearthed an intricately detailed silver medallion of the Greek goddess Aphrodite in the 2,100-year-old grave of a young woman, possibly a priestess, on the northeastern coast of the Black Sea.

The medallion also shows 10 — not the known 12 — signs of the zodiac, and gives unique insight into religious practices at that time and place.

Some researchers have proposed that the woman in the grave was a priestess of Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of beauty and love, but there's no way to be sure — although there are indications that her rings, silver earrings and other grave goods were also dedicated to the goddess.

"I do not call the woman buried with this medallion a 'priestess,'" Nikolay Sudarev, an archaeologist with the Russian Academy of Sciences who helped make the discovery, told Live Science. But the burial and its goods appear to be "connected with the cult of Aphrodite," he said. Read more.

Figured I'd post these, too!

Here's some stylized medallions I designed a couple months back of all 40 Sembla! In order, they are the categories of Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Purple, Pink, White, and Black. Each of these categories will also eventually have their own videos talking about them in depth! ....One day.

Gold medallion of the Roman emperor Diocletian (r. 284-305 CE). Ascending the throne after some fifty years of instability in the Roman Empire, Diocletian successfully restored order, dividing the Empire into eastern and western portions, each of which was ruled by a senior (Augustus) and junior (Caesar) emperor. He also earned infamy for his aggressive persecution of Christians, motivated by his belief that the traditional Roman gods were angry at the spread of "novel" religions. In 305, he became the first emperor to abdicate of his own accord, retiring to his palace at Split in present-day Croatia. Here Diocletian is depicted with a laurel crown and military cuirass, holding a globe surmounted by Victory in his right hand. Photo credit: Classical Numismatic Group, Inc. http://www.cngcoins.com

THE GOD OF MISCHIEF AND FIRE IS HERE!!! Loki is finally updated! Now he looks waaay better (and more androgenous :v) than before, now with even some tattoos!

Son of Fárbauti with Laufey, Loki was brother of Býleistr (which was also known as Thor and the giant father of wather spirits) and was "born" when his father struck his mother, causing a wildfire. From it, he took form. Loki had always been jealous of his brother, and when the dwarves Eitri and Brokkr decided to make the hammer Mjölnir for Býleistr, Loki decided to disrupt the forging but although succeeding with it and making the warhammer's handle smaller for such a gigantic hammerhead, Býleistr was fascinated by the hammer and could wield it even with such a disparity in weight.

Loki was fuming in rage and when a young god, Perkwunos, wanted the hammer for himself, Loki helped the young god achieving the god's goal, but his envy and jealousy blinded him to see though Perkwunos's intention. When the god held the hammer in his hand, he did not waste time on slaying Loki's brother in cold-blood, taking for himself the magic of weather spirits and Býleistr's title "Thor".

After that, the young god now named Thor threatened Loki into tricking Eitri and Brokkr to make for the thunder god a way to use the hammer with ease (due to its weight and small handle), and so the "járngreipr" were forged. Upon discovering about the trick, Eitri and Brokkr captured Loki and sewn his mouth shut "so he could not spread any more lies".

His other stories where he lied, tricked the gods and giants and even helped in the killing of Baldr led him into being hunted and captured by Váli Odinson, the god born with the sole purpose of capturing Loki, and bounding the trickster god into a rock with Loki's own daughter's guts, and the most venomous snake to spit its venom on the god's face for eternity. If not by Sigyn, his lover, who holds a bowl below the snake's mouth, Loki would be forever suffering and even if from time to time Sigyn has to let the venom drip on his lover everytime she empties the bowl, causing him to spasm and causing Midgard to shake, he would not have chosen any other one to spend his eternity with.

FINALLY HE IS DONE! I wanted so much to redesign him and I finally could BUT if you think he's the last redesigned OC Imma post, you're wrong >:D some Valkyries were also redesigned too and WILL be posted first on my P4TR30N so if any of you want check it out, it will be worth your money :D

The elegance and sense of relaxed luxury of a Parisian salon is evoked in this London townhouse. A simple low relief surround frames a plain hearth; real flickering flames are wittily echoed in the papier-mache sun medallion above.
