Ancient Greeks vs Centaurs
Went to the British museum the other day and there were SO MANY statues and sculptures of ancient Greeks fighting against centaurs. Am I the only one who thinks that’s just an easy win for the centaurs? Like surely no one’s wining a 1v1 against them

The first usage of the Arabic numerals in Europe!
In this manuscript from 1202 you can see the very first time the Arabic numerals were used in Europe, in a work by Fibonacci. A century later, they had almost completely replaced the roman ones, and 800 years later we still use them every day! #culture #numbers #history #classics #knowledge (edited)
