Is it just Britain that has loads of fun craft/home skills competition shows?

I mean the obvious one is The Great British Bake Off but then you have The Great British Sewing Bee, The Great Pottery Throw Down, The Big Painting Challenge, etc. They’re just very chill competitions where everyone gets along and gets in a frenzy about the skill. If I ever am not sure what I want to watch there is always one of these knocking about on iPlayer or Itv or channel 4, and they’re just so much fun (I’m watching the Sewing Bee atm and I just want to pick up a sewing machine now)

Three-thousand-year-old remains suggest Cretan woman was a master potter

Potterymaking in ancient Greece was a male-dominated profession, but about 3000 years ago, one woman from the island of Crete broke the mold to become the only known female master ceramicist in antiquity. The finding, based on a lengthy biomechanical analysis of her skeletal remains, sheds light on the elevated roles played by women in at least some parts of the classical world.

The master potter, who lived to be about 45 or 50, was buried in the city of Eleutherna on the slopes of Mount Ida, the legendary birthplace of Zeus. Ornate pottery in nearby graves suggests she lived between 900 B.C.E. and 650 B.C.E., after the fall of the Minoan and Mycenean civilizations (depicted above) and toward the end of the so-called Greek Dark Ages.
