On May 30, 1431, Joan of Arc was burned at the stake in Rouen's Old Marketplace at just 19 years old. Captured in battle and sold to the English, she faced numerous charges, from heresy to wearing men's clothes. It was her refusal to abandon the latter that sealed her fate, as her interrogators saw it as a sign of relapsing into heresy.
Her bravery and conviction continue to inspire us.
Joan of Arc's Death at the Stake, Hermann Stilke (1843)

Inscribed in ancient times, during the reign of Pharaoh Djoser of the Third Dynasty in around 2600 BC, the Famine Stela unveils a poignant tale from Egypt's past. Discovered in 1888 amid the ruins of Memphis near modern-day Cairo, this artifact chronicles a harrowing seven-year famine that gripped the kingdom. As the Nile River withheld its floods for consecutive years, crops failed, and hunger plagued the land, thrusting the populace into despair.
Amidst the turmoil, Pharaoh Djoser turned to his trusted advisor, Imhotep, seeking counsel in the face of adversity. Imhotep, wise and revered, urged Djoser to beseech the god Khnum, the divine guardian of the Nile's source. In a divine revelation, Khnum appeared to Djoser, instructing him to embark on a sacred mission—to erect a new temple and reinstate the worship of the gods.
In obedience to Khnum's guidance, Djoser initiated the construction of the iconic Step Pyramid at Saqqara—a monumental feat that would endure through the ages. Through this act of devotion and reverence, Djoser hoped to appease the gods and secure the kingdom's salvation.
The Famine Stela venerates Djoser's piety and sagacity, attributing the cessation of the famine to his devout actions. It serves as a testament to the profound connection between the pharaoh and the divine, underscoring the pivotal role of royal piety in safeguarding the prosperity and welfare of the realm.

Have you ever ventured into the mystical realm of the Temple of Hathor in Dendera, Egypt? Picture yourself ascending the 'melted' staircases, tracing your fingers along the mesmerizing reliefs that adorn its walls. Did you know that this sacred sanctuary has been a site of reverence and modification since the days of the illustrious Middle Kingdom (2030-1650 BC)? And did you realize that the existing structure we marvel at today began its construction during the late Ptolemaic period under the reign of Ptolemy Auletes in 54 BC? As you ponder these questions, you'll find yourself drawn deeper into the captivating allure and timeless mystery of Egypt's rich history.

Khara Khoto, situated in western Inner Mongolia, China, held significance along the Silk Road, functioning as a pivotal trade and cultural hub from the Tang Dynasty to the Western Xia Dynasty. Founded in the 7th century, it flourished under the Western Xia Dynasty, boasting a walled structure with temples, residential areas, and administrative buildings. In the early 13th century, Genghis Khan's Mongol Empire conquered the city, leading to its eventual abandonment and decline. The early 20th century brought the discovery of valuable artifacts and manuscripts in the ruins, shedding light on the region's rich history. Today, Khara Khoto's ruins stand as a popular archaeological site, attracting visitors intrigued by the ancient Silk Road and the civilizations that once thrived there.
