  • The history of salt is fascinating and multifaceted, reflecting its importance in various civilizations and cultures.

    1. Ancient Times: Salt has been a valuable commodity since ancient times. The Egyptians, as early as 3000 BC, used it for mummification. The Greeks traded salt for slaves, giving rise to the phrase “not worth his salt.” Ancient Romans paid their soldiers partly in salt, a practice known as “salarium,” the root of the modern word “salary.”
    2. Religious and Cultural Significance: In various cultures, salt has held religious and symbolic meanings. It’s mentioned in the Bible, symbolizing purity, and was used in Jewish and Christian rituals. In Japanese Shinto, it’s used for purification, and in Hinduism, it plays a role in dietary customs and rituals.
    3. Medieval and Renaissance Europe: During the Middle Ages, salt was a significant factor in economic development. It was heavily taxed, leading to smuggling and the infamous Salt Wars in Europe. In the Renaissance, salt became more accessible, and its production methods, like solar evaporation, improved.
    4. Industrial Revolution and Modern Times: With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, salt mining and production became more efficient. Innovations like vacuum pan evaporation revolutionized the industry. Today, salt is used in myriad ways, from food preservation and seasoning to de-icing roads and in industrial processes.
    5. Impact on Health and Society: The role of salt in health has been a topic of debate. It’s essential for human life but excessive consumption is linked to health issues like hypertension. This has led to public health campaigns to reduce salt intake.
    6. Economic and Political Influence: Historically, salt has influenced trade routes, led to the development of cities, and even caused wars. The Salt March led by Gandhi was a pivotal moment in the Indian independence movement against British colonial rule.

    The history of salt is a testament to its vital role in human civilization, reflecting not just economic and culinary importance but also cultural, religious, and political significance.

  • Think like a kid again? Ancient Greek mythology— the Iliad?

  • Everything is always desired or made in your own vision of yourself?

  • I love bronze!

    Soooo cool!

    Shining bronze … horsehair (shining, shiny bronze)— good car, rim idea? And clothing?

    Achilles’ armor, a central element in the tales of the Trojan War, is a fascinating blend of myth and imagined reality. Forged by Hephaestus, the god of blacksmiths, it symbolizes both divine craftsmanship and the peak of ancient Greek martial glory.

    The helmet, likely made of a shining bronze, would have been crested, possibly with horsehair, symbolizing both strength and status. This would make Achilles instantly recognizable on the battlefield. The breastplate, intricately designed, would not only offer robust protection but also serve as a canvas for depicting scenes of heroism and divinity, blending art and function.

    His greaves (leg armor) would be both sturdy and flexible, protecting the shins while allowing agile movement, crucial for a warrior of Achilles’ prowess. The shield, a masterpiece in its own right, was as much a defensive tool as it was a storytelling medium. It could have been emblazoned with scenes of Greek life and mythology, representing the world Achilles was fighting for.

    Lastly, the spear and sword of Achilles would be of exceptional quality, likely ornamented and balanced for both precision and power. These pieces would not only serve as deadly weapons but also as extensions of Achilles’ own martial skill and heroic identity.

    In this armor, Achilles wasn’t just protected physically; he was also adorned with the weight of legend and the favor of the gods, making him an almost otherworldly presence on the battlefield.

  • 100% percent red meat diet, beef and lamb. Ideally grass fed.

    The hierarchy: on top is organ meats like beef heart, beef liver, beef kidney, beef intestine, tripe. Beef tongue at all you can eat Korean barbecue is the best.

    After that, some sort of grass fed flesh meat, 100% grass fed ground beef, or grass fed Lamb.

    Also let us never forget bone marrow… The food of the demigods and Achilles.

    Given that Seneca is only two years 10 months old… He doesn’t even eat that much of it. Super easy to just break them into small mini burger patties, throw it into the air fryer, put it in some sort of container, like some sort of Rubbermaid container, and feeding it to send when he is out and about in nature!
