Fayum Mummy Portraits, dating from around 30 BC to the mid 3rd century AD. 

The portrait heads were attached to Egyptian mummies of the Roman period, covering the faces of the deceased In the top pictures, you can see now they were bound to the mummy. Dating from the time of the Roman occupation of Egypt, they are closest to Graeco-Roman artistic traditions. Around 900 are known to survive and they are some of the only surviving evidence of Classical panel painting traditions. Due to their burial in hot, dry conditions with the bodies, many have survived in excellent condition. 

The term Fayum comes from an area of graveyards (necropoli) where they were found in large numbers, buried in communal catacombs. 

Painted on wooden board (and sometimes on cloth), either in encaustic (wax) or egg tempera.

Capitalists: It’s human nature for a small number of individuals to take control of the planet’s fresh water supply and demand that people pay in order to use it.

Date with this cute Irish boy was going great then he said 'don't call me Irish, I'm British' (my heart sinks) then he boasted about his UUP MLA uncle and how he hates the Irish (I mean he his fucking Irish whether he likes it or not) so I told him all about my family in the IRA then left when he went to the toilet for 15 minutes after saying I was a terrorist. You win some you lose some guys...
