This evening, Iโ€™m getting excited about astronomical notation on papyri. This is P.Oxy. astr. 4188, a sign-entry almanac and, as far as I know, the only Greek planetary table that indicates retrogradation. We may have discovered a Demotic one (edition forthcoming!). #papyrology

๐ŸŒŸI am a geek and also a historian of science, so when I think about the #DialofDestiny in the new #IndianaJones movie, this is what comes to mind. Replica of an astrological volvelle dating to the 15th century, currently at @HSMOxford , made by Master Terebrus.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง I have been able to find, after some search in antiquarian bookstores, a second edition (1889) of Amelia Edwardsโ€™ โ€˜A Thousand Miles Up the Nileโ€™, a treasure of the history of Egyptology. It is remarkable for its beautiful cover. It is in perfect condition ๐Ÿ“š

The latest addition to my collection of archaeological replicas is my favourite mummy portrait, dating to the 2nd c. CE. The original is in the BM, and this replica is now in my university office (in honour of @egypto_lou_gist , who is doing amazing research on these portraits!).
