The Greater Rasp Worm A massive terrestrial âwormâ, with specimens commonly reaching taller than an adult man in height, the rasp worm is most known for its habit of âlickingâ objects it recognizes as food. The wormâs tongue is actually a rough radula that it must run over its meal until it has been reduced to liquid and can be carried back to the mouth. Generally feeding on plant matter, both live and decaying, it can occasionally be found eating abandoned carcasses. Due to its large size and slow eating habits, the worm will spend nearly all its time grazing. The small legs of the worm are not segmented, but pointed sacks given rigidity through hydrostatic fluids. They move slowly and, when threatened, the worm will rear and spray a foul, sticky fluid. It will then retract into a rigid state, in hopes of protecting its soft hide. Without bones or a hard exterior, the worm has few actual defenses against predators.

Statue of Ptah
Twenty-eight wooden statues of deities, wrapped in linen, were found in black-painted shrines. Their purpose was to protect the king during his journey in the underworld. This one depicts Ptah, the divine patron of craftsmen and artists and lord of creation at Memphis.
His gilded statue wears a robe, richly ornamented with feathers, and a broad necklace. A blue faience skullcap covers his head and the eyes and eyebrows are inlaid with faience and stone.
The deity holds a composite staff made up of a âWasâ scepter, a Djed pillar, and an Ankh sign.

How Old Is This Vase?
You may be surprised to learn that this terracotta vase is from the Umayyad or Abbasid Caliphates, between 700 and 900 CE!
Its style is distinctly Islamic in nature, with incised lines and an elegant shape. What I noticed first, though, was the odd glazing which leaves the bottom looking unfinished and very modern. Known as âtwo-thirdsâ glaze, this is actually typical of early Islamic art.
Gold Dinar, Sanâa Mint, 949 - 950 CE, Authority: al-Mustakfi, Abbasid Caliphate
Hello everyone, Iâm back from the dead (or it just felt that way) and ready to get rolling on more excellent ancient coins. Itâs been a whirlwind over here, but Iâm hoping the worst is behind us and we can get back to normal. For the information of the viewers, I am now a PhD and Professor, and no longer a humble grad student. I will be continuing tor run the blog from a place of employment, so watch this space for updates with my new students in the fall and spring!
Todayâs coin is a really interesting piece, a beautiful gold dinar from the collection of the American Numismatic Society. This coin was struck in Arabia under the authority of al-Mustakfi, the Caliph of Baghdad. However, this coin provides us with some information about how information traveled in the Abbasid world. Al-Mustakfi was caliph, imposed by a Turkish invading force, from 944 to 946 CE, after which time he was deposed and replaced by Al-Muti. However, the news of this change evidently did not reach Arabia immediately, because this coin was truck a full three years after al-Mustakfi was out of power. It took a while for news to move, and there was, evidently, not much urgency involved with informing the rest of the Caliphate of the violent changes that were happening in Baghdad.
A Medieval Muslim Perspective on Human Existence
In the 700s, a Persian scholar named Ibn al-Muqaffa recorded a parable, describing human existence. A man fears an elephant so he dangles himself into a pit to hide. He soon realizes there is a dragon waiting at the bottom of the pit, and rats are gnawing on the branches he is holding onto. The man then notices a beehive and tries its honey. He becomes âdiverted, unaware, preoccupied with that sweetnessâ and while he is distracted, the rats finish gnawing the branches. The man falls into the dragonâs mouth with sweetness still on his tongue.
What a happy parable!
