Lana del rey - Coachella 24

A mother with a grudge, a two metre long will and a bit of sibling rivalry - no, we're not talking about our latest family dramas or that new Netflix series. We're talking about Naunakhte, a woman who lived in a small village called in ancient Egypt, and the story of a family argument that still sounds familiar over three millennia later. In today's episode of our Museum Secrets, learn more about Naunakhte's will and what it reveals to us about daily life, love and family in ancient Egypt. Listen here, or wherever you find your podcasts: ashmolean.org/museum-secrets

On This Day In History . 25 October 1415 . Henry V gained his greatest victory at the Battle of Agincourt . The Battle of Agincourt was a major English victory in the Hundred Years’ War. It took place on 25 October 1415 (Saint Crispin’s Day) in the County of Saint-Pol, Artois, some 40 km south of Calais (now Azincourt in northern France). . ◼ England’s unexpected victory at Agincourt against a numerically superior French army boosted English morale & prestige, crippled France, & started a new period in the war during which the English began enjoying great military successes. . 👑 King Henry V of England led his troops into battle & participated in hand-to-hand fighting. . ◼ The battle is notable for the use of the English longbow in very large numbers, with the English & Welsh archers making up nearly 80 percent of Henry’s army. The devastation of the French cavalry at their hands signaled the decline of cavalry & the increasing dominance of ranged weapons on the battlefield. . ◼ Agincourt is one of England’s most celebrated victories & was one of the most important English triumphs in the Hundred Years’ War, along with the Battle of Crécy (1346) & Battle of Poitiers (1356). It forms the centrepiece of the play Henry V by William Shakespeare. . 📖 Read my full story of the Battle with biography of Henry V, where you can also watch clips of Shakespeare’s play, by Sir Laurence Olivier in 1944 & Kenneth Branagh in the 1989 version. . . . #onthisdayinhistory #thisdayinhistory #theyear1415 #d25oct #BattleofAgincourt #HundredYearsWar #History #Historic #HenryV #HenryVofEngland #KingHenryV #England #France #SaintCrispinsDay #EnglishHistory #EnglishMonarchy #instahistory #historyfacts #Thebritishmonarchy #Britishmonarchy #HouseofLancaster #HouseofPlantagenet #otd (at Azincourt) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGxuvHzDNXs/?igshid=boli0pz7tlr8

NEW MAP: Europe 310: Maximian’s Last Stand (July 310) https://buff.ly/2TMJFoo Maximinus Daza refused to accept the rulings at Carnuntum and demanded to be made an Augustus. Reluctantly, Galerius backed down, initially acknowledging Maximinus and Constantine as ‘Sons of Augusti’ then, after Maximinus threatened to rebel, recognizing them both as full Augusti in 310. That year Constantine faced his own problems when his father-in-law Maximian emerged from retirement in Viennensis and proclaimed himself emperor again. However, Maximian found little support and was forced to kill himself when Constantine’s army arrived. #4thcentury #ancientrome #constantine #constantinethegreat #constantinei #maximian #easternromanempire #europeanhistory #gaul #historian #historias #historic #historicalmap #historisch #historybuff #historydegree #historylover #historylovers #historyschool #instahistory #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romanitaly #romans #westernromanempire #worldhistory (at Arles, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR96lAYhHbX/?utm_medium=tumblr
