Carrying Chest Surmounted by Anubis

This carrying chest is surmounted by the Anubis, a jackal-headed god made of wood, varnished black, and wrapped in linen.

The details of the animal are gilded except for the claws, which are made of silver. The eyes are made of alabaster and obsidian. The chest is in the form of a shrine, decorated with friezes of the Djed and Tyet signs, which are symbols of stability and protection.

The chest had been placed on a sledge with four carrying poles. The roof of the shrine acts as a lid. Numerous amulets in faience, eight pectorals, and alabaster vases and cups were placed in the compartments inside.

From the Tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62). Now in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. JE 61444

Up now on my eBay! Rare 1970′s anime production cel from Toei animation! This cel is from either Starzinger or Captain Future, it has been hard to identify! Also up for grabs: my superheroine comic collection (70’s-80’s stuff), random Radio Comix books and various indie comics! My house is super small, and I am still selling off thirty years’ worth of collectibles to raise money for ongoing back taxes & various upcoming large expenses, so every little bit helps. Thanks for looking & sharing!

“Amateur Opossum Actress” by Rebecca Kriz

I object to the diminishment of this opossum’s OBVIOUS theatrical skill and training

Amateur just means she isn’t getting paid. She’s doing it only for the passion.

“Chaldeans have been targeted by ISIS and subjected to genocide, as have other religious minorities,” said Representative Anna Eshoo (D-CA), who is herself Chaldean Catholic of Assyrian descent, in a statement. “Their deportation represents a death sentence should they be deported to Iraq or Syria.”

And now one year later…

My dad is Assyrian/Chaldean and when the news broke last year that Iraq was no longer on Trump’s Muslim ban list we quickly learned that Iraqi nationals were now subject to deportation. Previously there were protections in place, especially considering the violence, discrimination, & you know literal genocide experienced by Kurds, Chaldeans, & Assyrians if they were to be deported. The raids happened in Detroit - another obvious move. The Assyrian, Kurdish, Chaldean population there is huge because literally all of them come through Detroit when they come to the US and most just settle there. The raids targeted those who had PRIOR felonies - most were non-violent, many were from years/decades ago, and they had served out their punishments. THIS IS RETROACTIVE PUNISHMENT and, in Jimmy Aldaoud’s case, it was a retroactive death sentence.
