Around 4,800 years ago, a young mother died in the Taiwanese coast. In 2023, her remains were unearthed, revealing that she had been buried with a six-month-old infant cradled in her arms. This touching arrangement, found near a stone dwelling, suggests that the mother and child were laid to rest together in a loving embrace, offering a rare and intimate glimpse into the emotional and social practices of ancient communities.

It isn't known what killed the mother and child, but Chu Whei-Lee of Taiwan’s National Museum of Science said: “The young mother holding the baby surprised us most. I guess they were buried under the house by their loved ones."

Flemish School - #Aeneas and the Cumaean #Sibyl in the #Underworld, early 17th century 

This picture represents Aeneas and the Cumaean Sibyl’s journey into the Underworld, a scene based on Virgil’s 6th book of The Aeneid, when Aeneas prayed to be able to see his deceased father once more and is led by the oracle down a pathway into the underworld.  The two figures are shown standing close to one another, the Trojan hero in full armor and holding his sword.  The surroundings in which the two are depicted strongly suggest that the artist was familiar with the works of Hieronymus Bosch (circa 1450-1516) and his followers.  Hundreds of figures of all ages, some hybrid or skeletal, are shown engaged in a broad range of activities in a dark, eerie and alarming setting, complete with the river Styx, on which is shown Charon’s skiff.  There are many fascinating and intriguing details included in this composition, including galloping classicizing sphinges, a man shoveling, a woman playing the tambourine and various real and imaginary animals.
