Really good article. “There are autisms, rather than just autism.”

My photo shows a small Proto-Corinthian clay aryballos (perfumed-oil container) in the shape of an owl with a pouring hole in the tail. Height 5 cm, Width 6.4 cm. The owl is perched with its tail to the left and head to the right. It leans slightly forwards with head turned so that its large eyes face the viewer. The owl’s chest is painted black. The eyes and plummage are intricately detailed in black on a yellowy-cream slip. Three rows of feathers in the wing plumage are painted alternately in red and black. Dated c. 640 BC

It’s #InternationalOwlAwarenessDay

A figure with a dogs head with long snout and erect ears, recalling Anubis, wears a robe that shows off his pecks to best effect. He is stood in a landscape full of plants. Two other animals are partly visible in this photo: to his left the hind parts of a griffin and above him the legs of a giraffe.

The Mosaic of ‘Anubis’ from Rimini which may depict the god or more likely a dog-headed person (cynocephalus) from beyond the borders of the known world in an exoticised landscape. A complex image of Roman engagement with different cultures 🏺 #AncientBluesky #MosaicMonday
