The ancient egyptians murdered all the hippos in the lower Nile before extinctioning species was even cool. Give no quarter to those monsters.

St_Ides posted:Hippo kills more humans than any other mammal in Africa. They live in the water and leave at night, if a human accidentally gets between them and the water they’ll bite them in to three pieces in a single chomp. They have the strongest bite pressure of all mammals. They’re extremely paranoid when they’re out of the water, due to their vulnerability. They may look like giant balls of fat, but they can run 50kph (35mph). They are absolutely not to be hosed with. The Adventurer Goon has logged on

In the 1570s, England was looking to sell ammunition and firearms to Muslim-ruled Morocco in exchange for saltpeter. Queen Elizabeth sent merchant Edmund Hogan to seal the deal. Fearing the diplomatic implications of selling arms to Muslims, she produced written instructions explicitly condemning any arms sales while making it clear to Hogan through verbal instructions that his mission was to get friendly with ruler Abd al-Malik and secure the trade.

She sounds like a smart lady. Perhaps "immoral", but what is morality anyway. Being a monarch or other dictator is immoral in itself.

 (Secundinus the fool) Basically Secundinus was such an rear end in a top hat that he pissed some guy off enough to chisel an insult onto Hadrian's wall so that future generations would know that Secundinus was a fool.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Secundinius's parents were so intensely Roman that they gave up on naming their kids after one, who was almost certainly Dadsname Junior

They did that with daughters:quote:Another factor was probably that the praenomen was not usually necessary to distinguish between women within the family. Because a Roman woman did not change her nomen when she married, her nomen alone was usually sufficient to distinguish her from every other member of the family. As Latin names had distinctive masculine and feminine forms, the nomen was sufficient to distinguish a daughter from both of her parents and all of her brothers. Thus, there was no need for a personal name unless there were multiple sisters in the same household.[2] I haven't seen it it sons, but anyway he was probably of the Secundia family (Secundius in singular): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secundia_gens Side note: My great grandfather was named Otto because he was the eighth child ("otte" in Danish)

Wipfmetz posted:Was the oldest daughter suddenly (re-)named after the birth of her first and then her second sister? If she was solo wouldn't she just be Servilia, then either Servilia Major, Servilia Prima, etc. She doesn't stop being first when the younger ones come in. The Servilia part is the only important part.   And no they didn't swap from like Maxima to Prima, Maxima still means first. Personal choice.

Wipfmetz posted:Was the oldest daughter suddenly (re-)named after the birth of her first and then her second sister? She would just be Servilia until the birth of her sister, at which time she became Servilia Major (like how monarchs are just King Dave until another King Dave is born at which point they retrospectively become Dave I and II). If any more sisters were born the first two would be renamed Servilia Maxima and Secunda respectively and any subsequent sisters would be added onto the bottom (Third, Fourth etc).

I don't have any contemporary sources but according to Edwardian Farm up through the early 20th century it wasn't unheard of for chimneys to be cleaned by dropping a chicken or other fowl down it, and the mad scrabbling of their claws would scrape the sides on their way down.

Reading about 19th century Danish youth get-togethers. They could often get quite unhinged, and the authorities adjusted the law several times, and eventually they required a permit from the local reeve. Anyway, one activity was trille julekage (to roll christmas cake), in which a young man and a young woman fully dressed laid on top of each other on a table, and the other participants "kneaded the dough", so to speak. I guess the mormons took it a step further.

I'd believe it, though I suspect it wasn't discovered by accident. Though it might have been.
