>>18456183This one’s from the Ministry of Culture of Peru:https://gestiondecolecciones.cultura.gob.pe/catalogo#mdlDetalleI think it is the same collection as the catalogue of the "Museo Nacional de Arqueología, Antropología e Historia" of Peru, which doesn’t only include objects from that museum but also from others:https://mnaahp.cultura.pe/catalogo-en-lineaI would swear the Ministry of Culture version feels smaller. However the National Museum catalogue has been offline for some time, so I can’t verify it.
>>18456352Unclear, we're trying to kinda figure that out now, the problem is most museum listings for projectiles and points don't seem to clearly distinguish them as arrows vs atlatl darts (actually, they all just say arrows, so they might all just be actual arrows), or as points for arrows vs darts.We're hoping that as we make our way through some academic papers rather then just collection listings, that the papers will point to specific obsidian/flint points that are likely to be from atlatl specifically (and we came across at least one paper which seems to be about distguiishing arrow vs atlatl points), but we'll see how successful that ends up being>>18456424Do you know what the legal status is of images produced by federal government Peruvian agencies and if the images are public domain or if the Peruvian government holds a copyright on them?

>>18448571Bullshit, the vast majority considered themselves subjects of the emperor and Middle Kingdom no matter which Sinitic language they spoke, and every bureaucrat was required to know the capital's language. Regionalism was only ever strong in times the government broke down (that's why you never see the Seven Warring States rise again, even though those were regional identities, and why it was always easy in later times to fold ephemeral kingdoms like Min or Chu back into states that tried ruling all China). It was scandalous for bureaucrats to not be able to speak the language of the capital. The hill tribes were always a minority who were always subjugated to the Chinese (the system's name changed over the centuries but existed since the Tang era) and so were the Mongols, Jurchens, Khitans, and other northern groups (except for of course the times they ruled over all China). China was a Han Chinese country, plain and simple, and this was aided because the vernacular form of writing local Chinese languages was never standardized since most literate people could read Classical Chinese which says the same shit no matter how you pronounce it.
> A consistent theme found throughout the Pauline corpus is participation with Christ, first and foremost this is done in baptism (Romans 6:1-4), but also by enduring actual bodily hardships and trials such that Paul can say he carries the literal sufferings of Jesus in his body (Galatians 6:11-17, 2 Corinthians 4:7-12). Paul thinks that suffering as Jesus suffered is both meritorious and will result in the spiritual transformation of our bodies (Philippians 3:7-21, 1 Corinthians 9:24-27). Just as Jesus was rewarded abundantly and physically exalted in his act of obedience toward God (Philippians 2:6-11), so too can participants in Jesus Christ attain this same transformed body through faith and righteous living apart from the Mosaic law. Jesus's death seems to have both appeased God's wrath for sin (korban) and leads to a superabundance (uperperissos) of grace so that its rewards can be credited to the accounts of his participants in such a way that they too can attain to the same kind of righteous life Jesus has, leading to salvation (Romans 3:25-26, Romans 5:15-21, 2 Corinthians 5:21). Paul tells members of his churches to imitate him (1 Corinthians 11:1) and encourages his audience to offer their bodies as spiritual sacrifices to God (Romans 12:1). We see a very literal acting out of this in later writers like Ignatius of Antioch who thought of his martyrdom procession as being comparable to that of the Old Testament scapegoat (peripsema) resulting in the expiation of sins and final salvation (Brent, Ignatius of Antioch: A Martyr Bishop and the origin of Episcopacy, pg. 48-49). I suspect all of this is simply a Christianization of the already extant tradition of martyrdom in Second Temple Judaism and embedded in Maccabean literature (4 Maccabees 17:20-22). Indeed, Ignatius of Antioch seems to paraphrase 4 Maccabees 9:17 and 10:5-7 in his Epistle to the Romans, ch. 5 (ibid., pg. 117-118).
In the video game KCD2 by Czech Warhorse Studios set in early 15th century Bohemia, there is a doctor from Mali, Musa, working in King Sigismund's military camp. He takes you on a tour of the camp and complains about Czech people being barbaric and eating unseasoned slop. Was it possible for someone like him to end up there?
>>18455011>SomaliaWhat did they have?
>>18454997They put their money into their military to bash other Africans. Sources state the Malinese could raise 10,000 horsemen and 100,000 infantry which is pretty impressive when most of his country was either a desert or tsetse fly infested land hostile to horses. That makes them one of the largest armies of their era. Timbuktu was also wealthy enough that hundreds or even thousands of slave trading Jews called Radhanites lived there.

>It has been estimated that less than ten per cent of all classical literature has survived into the modern era. For Latin, the figure is even worse: it is estimated that only one hundredth of all Latin literature remains.How ever much you hate Christianity, know it isn't even close to enough. If you're a European, or of European descent, Christianity literally stole the world from you. More than that, it stole your destiny. It was our blood right to rule this world, even under the circumstances, we did, momentarily. But Christcuckery pervaded us, destroyed our Pagan origin, and set us on this course of Semitic universalism, holier-than-thou, turn-the-other-cheek, first-shall-become-last jewish philosophy that is still molesting this world today also in newer forms.Christianity is a fake religion created by jews who took the story of one of many roaming charlatans at the time, not Simon or Apollonius, but that of Jesus, son of Panthera and a jewish woman lying about her maidenhead. Then Paul constructed this into a tool to push onto the jews' mortal enemy: Rome.TCD

>>18455268>It was the onset of Christianity that ended the pagan institutions copying texts to begin withIf you mean only pagan institutions, but the majority of texts were circulated and copied in either private hands or by the state. Christianity didn't have an impact on this culture at all, it was the end of the Roman state which did.
>>18455268Sure is crazy how the ONE thing christian monasteries were known for was copying texts
>>18455788Except they only chose to preserve texts that they saw as ‘useful’ and discarded texts they didn’t consider useful, even if pagans considered them immensely valuable. The texts we do have only survived because they were essential for teaching Greek and Latin grammar or rhetoric (Virgil was the standard for Latin and you needed Aristotle to win debates), not because Christians appreciated the content itself which was pagan and thus considered by Christians to be “demonic superstition.” Pagans had already been copying these texts for centuries and would have continued to do so without Christianity; it's foolish to suggest that Christianity was somehow necessary for their preservation (especially when pagan institutions that had already been preserving them for centuries like temple libraries and Neoplatonist academies were literally shut down by Christians). It’s less that Christianity “saved” the classics but rather they became the sole librarians after they helped dismantle the competition.
Is there truly beauty in futile struggles against cold mathematical inevitability or is it just pathetic cope borne from seething against the indifferent universe?
>>18455695Depends, because not all struggles are beautiful. You see people celebrating some attractive faggot because of his "hard work" and "struggles" but seeing a brownoid turd worlder break his back grinding money for his family is "sad" and "depressing". Choose only the beautiful struggles as much as possible.
>>18455735It seems like you also only care about the beautiful, you are superficial and thus a worthless person. The obsession with the beautiful is exactly the reason why humanity is doomed to fail, and the fact people aren't reproducing anymore proves it.

>>18455915>>18456065>In the report being read in the video, Ibrahim's account says a cleric is asked, "Is it permissible for me to let one of the jihadi brothers sodomize me to widen my anus if the intention is good?" Although the cleric reminds everyone that sodomy is forbidden, he offers an exception. "Jihad comes first," he said, according to Ibrahim's translation, "for it is the pinnacle of Islam, and if the pinnacle of Islam can only be achieved through sodomy, then there is no wrong in it." The supposed cleric actually makes the case that not only is sodomy allowed, it could be required. "If obligatory matters can only be achieved by performing the prohibited, then it becomes obligatory to perform the prohibited, and there is no greater duty than jihad," the cleric reportedly says. "After he sodomizes you, you must ask Allah for forgiveness and praise him all the more."Raymond has always known

The expulsion of the moors deeply crippled the southern and western parts of the country and would do worse for the Ottomans. And for what it's worth the main driver of Ottoman collapse was Russian obssesion with Tsargrad, not the native Christians (who were somewhat numerically challenged at that time).
How true is all this?What sources are these claims based on? How much of a stretch are they? If a black African worshiped Odin how would Odin feel about it?
>>18455508Christianity is superstitious because it is based on lies and deceitful nonsense. Jesus was not a god, he was nothing more than a man.
>>18456037>Why even bother with the old godsThe gods are real, always have been and always will. It is Zeus who rules the cosmos. Zeus is the king of gods and men. He is the father of all and his very name comes from the earlier more primitive conception of him that the Proto-Indo Europeans held, *Dyḗus ph2tḗr, literally meaning “Sky Father.” He is the one who created the universe and he made lesser gods like Athena and Apollo to govern certain aspects of the universe on his behalf. He is the source of all life hence why he is also sometimes called Zên which in Ancient Greek means “life.”The myths surrounding Zeus are allegories for divine truths, not literal historical events. He is a metaphysical spirit who transcends the physical universe and the traditional anthropomorphic depiction of him is a representation of him, not a literal depiction of what he actually looks like. Compare this to how love, a force which exists but is not a physical thing that can be weighed or measured, is often represented by a heart.
>>18454067The prose edda is not an empirical source in Germanic or IE studies for this reason. It's a 13th century skald trying to keep a dying light alive. There were many attempts at this and innovations (wonderful, even) in poetry and prose from this era. But it simply does not reflect the pre-Christian worldview or even the early Christian worldview of the gods. It's a LARP that Odin was this universal progenitor, and Germanic culture had more of this cosmic "completeness" than most any other Indo-European cosmology where such things were even considered. Romans would have scoffed at the idea of some chinaman being the descendants of Jupiter. In later myths they thought we were made from mud, for example. And that Jupiter gave us life. That's a more realistic view of pre-Christian myth than one god fathering all mankind, which literally no one believed it seems.

>>18455640Hitler hated Slavs and wanted them all pushed behind the Urals, beside the minority (10-20%) who were Aryan enough to turn into Germans. On the other hand, Hitler had no problem with Muslims and chose them over the Zionists some Nazis like Eichmann supported in the 30s. Hitler also officially classified Iran as an Aryan country. Although Hitler did believe that Indians, Iranians, etc. were mixed and degenerated from their Aryan ancestors, this is really the same thing as what the Nazis believed about Slavs so there's no racial reason why Hitler or his successors wouldn't import the pale, Aryan-looking Iranians or north Indians or Central Asians for cheap labor.
