Minoan trans man.. I'd like to think he's a saffron goddess who may have been playing tricks but made a realization in the process 🐂➰

mē, tangō leviter Miētte cum latus pedīs meī: Miētta, dēmovēre ut nōn incurrere in tē

Miētte, cum oculōs ēius magnōs: tū CALITRĀS Miētte? tū calitrās corpus ēius sīcut follis? ēheu! ēheu! carcer prō Mātre! carcer prō Mātre prō Singula Mīlla Annōs!!!!

Detail from the “unswept floor” mosaic made by Heraclitus, showing a mouse eating a walnut. 2nd century CE, now on display at the Vatican Museums.

Imagine trying to clean this floor–or even walk across it–and constantly wondering, “Wait. Is that one REAL?”

I think one of the most beautiful things about learning an ancient or dead language, is the pure humanity thereof.

You could do or learn something more functional, sure, but you're taking time to understand the essence of a people long left behind in time.

These people, now dead for centuries or even millennia, wrote things down and in doing so, said:

"I was here, remember me"

And here, eras later, we take time to decipher, read, and understand it, to say into the void of their existence:

"We see you, we know you, you are still alive."

Partial view of the atrium in the House of the Ceii, Pompeii. The small round marble table survived the fury of Vesuvius.

Based on electoral inscriptions, it is believed that this house belonged to the magistrate Lucius Ceius Secundus.
