wow.

i don't tend to comment on your academic posts 'cos... well, i'm intimidated, frankly. but i gotta say-- shana, you continue to amaze me, and teach things that are endlessly fascinating. this is something to watch for next trip to that region-- educational and enhancing. you should get tasty treats for a) finding this info in the first place (which more likely than not took a bit of doing) and b) putting it out there for everyone to share.

I'm sorry you're intimidated by my academic posts! If it's any consolation, I find your gym trips rather intimidating - never having been a gym goer, it seems as if you do a huge amount of things when you're there.

The frescoes are pretty nifty - I think I saw them when I was maybe 11, so I don't remember them well in person, but several have come up over the course of my dissertation, so I felt I ought to know more about it. Looking through this was one of those lessons in why academia is worth pursuing: just because something is famous, doesn't mean very many people have seriously worked on the problem. In this case, there was obviously one published book, and this dissertation, by different people.
