And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Egyptian Core-Formed Glass Flask with Applied Thread Decoration, New Kingdom, C. 1336 BC-1213 BC
Amazing work for 1300 BC. Stuff like this always makes me wonder what else these civilizations were doing that we probably will never know about.
Sooner or later some intern at the museum will be dusting it and it'll slip and fall, smashing itself on the floor. Probably the culprit will be that kid in the bird video.
Fascinating since it looks like it was created just before civilization collapsed. I really enjoyed this one from a couple of weeks ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRcu-ysocX4
...no kidding...That's amazing. I'd like to see that duplicated without electricity!
