I hate that so many great memes on IG now have some AI bullshit caption beneath them

So this I learned today and is kind of funny, but during the Diadochi period between Alex the Horse Boy's death and the first Punic War, Benevento in Southern Italy was originally named Maleventum ("Place of Bad Events"). It was only after the Phyrric War in 275 BCE that Rome itself changed its name to Beneventum ("Place of Good Events").

Additionally Beneventum can also be translated as "Good Wind", and Maleventum as "Bad Wind".

9 Ways Warriors Stayed Fit Through History: Videos
See workouts inspired by civilizations around the world.
The title is misleading bc they don't actually tell you how these people stayed in shape themselves (spoiler it was fighting anyway), but I really like the concept of crafting modern workouts to get you the same type of fitness that cultures were utilizing like this

The historicity of the Bible is so frustrating bc it's genuinely one of the best or only sources we have of things only tangently related to Christianity just bc it's full of everyday stuff too thrown in.

Yeah like people kind of skim over the fact that, if you take out all the religious text, the latter half of the Old Testament is essentially a retelling of the fall of Israel to the Babylonians and later Cyrus's giving back of their land.
