  • Death and preservation of head Petrie's headstone in the Protestant Cemetery, Jerusalem (2009) Sir Flinders Petrie died in Jerusalem on 28 July 1942. His body was interred in the Protestant Cemetery on Mount Zion, but he donated his head (and thus his brain) to the Royal College of Surgeons of London. World War II was then at its height, and the head was delayed in transit. After being stored in a jar in the college basement, its label fell off and no one knew to whom the head belonged.[1]

  • The heart scarab is an oval scarab artifact dating from ancient Egypt. Mostly an amulet, it was also used as jewelry, a memorializing artifact, or a grave good. The heart scarab was used by referring to Chapter 30 from the Book of the Dead and the weighing of the heart, being balanced by Maat, goddess of truth, justice, order, wisdom, and cosmic balance. The function of the heart scarab was to bind the heart to silence while it was being weighed in the underworld to ensure that the heart did not bear false witness against the deceased.[7] As in many current religions, the individual had to show 'worthiness' to achieve the afterlife. The heart was extremely important to ancient Egyptians as the seat of intelligence and the storehouse of memory. It was the only organ left in place during mummification. Heart scarab amulets were meant as substitutes for the heart should the deceased be deprived of the organ in the afterlife.[7] For example, when a person died, a heart scarab was often placed on their heart and bound underneath the bandages of the mummy. This was to ensure that it could not be physically removed from their person.[8]

  • Souvenirs. Based on their amuletic nature, but combining hieroglyphic signs for good luck, pictures of gods or rulers, or defendingagainst evil, a type of scarab was produced by temples andcourts to be given to visitors, in the manner of a modemsouvenir (Ward 1994, 189). The souvenirs not only filled arequirement for the visitor, it was thought to provide aprofitable business for the producers, and supply propaganda for the relevant deity (Keel 1995, 274-5). For example, the priests at Memphis used seal amulets of Ptah to demonstrate the superiority of Ptah over Re in Heliopolis (Keel/Keel-Leu/Schroer 1989, 281-323).

  • The core myth at the heart of the cult of Heraion of Samos is that of her birth. According to the local tradition, the goddess was born under a lygos tree (Vitex agnus-castus, the "chaste-tree"). At the annual Samian festival called the Toneia, the "binding", the cult image of Hera was ceremonially bound with lygos branches, before being carried down to the sea to be washed. The tree still featured on the coinage of Samos in Roman times and Pausanias mentions that the tree still stood in the sanctuary.[4]

Lapland Mother and Child the breast, around under her arms and the ends are tiedunderneath the child. Thus the weight comes upon her shoul-ders, chest, back and hips, while allowing both arms free tocarry freight. This is the method usually adopted by theSlavonic and Polish mothers. I o PEDIATRICS The Lapland mother, here shown, was a member of asmall colony imported by Uncle Sam to introduce the breed-ing of reindeer in Alaska. There were about fifteen in theparty, and this woman had two children, the younger she car-ried in this queer looking combination of cradle and sled,which she could carry either across her back, after the mannerof a quiver with arrows, or else drag along over the snow asa sled. The picturesque costume was made of furs and skins,while the cap was brilliant with fancy-dyed leather; the large

During lean times, the Phoenicians would sometimes go so far as to sacrifice needed children to their pagan gods. During times of plenty, there were more children to sacrifice. Baalshillem Temple Boy

Christopher Rollston agreed with Ahituv's reading, in the face of some scholars who argue that the script was Phoenician.[who?] Rollston notes that in this period, the direction of writing in Northwest Semitic and Phoenician was standardized as sinistrograde (right to left), whereas the incised text is typical of Early Alphabetic, i.e., dextrograde (left to right) script. Rollston would date the text to the 11th century, which is on the early end of Ahituv's 11th–10th-century dating.[15]

The "woman at the window", a woman usually wearing an Egyptian-style wig and a frontlet on her forehead, looking frontally out of a window supported on small columns, such as existed in the women's quarters on the upper floor of a Phoenician palace. The allusion is to a cult of Ashtart, common in Cyprus and probably Phoenicia, in which she or her votaress figures as a sacred prostitute. It was perhaps bedecked in this guise that Jezebel looked out of her window to ensnare the returning captain Jehu by her wiles.[16]

A war that God waged against a multitude of challengers-the deep, the sea, Rahab the sea monster, the rivers, Leviathan the Twisting Serpent, Leviathan the Elusive Serpent, and the sea dragons-is referred to in the psalms, the prophecies, and other writings. We find, for example, in Isaiah 51:9-10: "Awake, awake, clothe yourself with splendor. O arm of the LORD! Awake as in days of old, as in former ages! It was you that hacked Rahab into pieces, that pierced the Dragon. It was you that dried up the waters of the great deep [tehom]." [17]
