[dailyunsolvedmysteries]

Scaphism was a supposed Persian method of execution that was designed to inflict a lingering, painful, and humiliating death on those who were unfortunate enough to experience it. The victim would be trapped between two boats or other hollow objects, and their exposed head, arms, and legs would be covered in honey. They would then be force-fed only milk and honey before being left in the sun or a stagnant pool. Flies, other insects, and rodents would be attracted to the victim and would slowly eat them. The only evidence for this comes from Greek historical texts, which had a lot of bias towards the Persians.

SCAPHISM

Scaphism (from Greek σκάφη, meaning ‘boat’) also known as the boats, is an alleged ancient Persian method of execution mentioned by Plutarch in his Life of Artaxerxes. It ostensibly entailed trapping the victim between two boats, feeding and covering them with milk and honey, and allowing them to fester and be devoured by insects and other vermin over time.

Escaphism

“Under every scrap of confining skin is the potential for escape. When life grows from your husk, you, in turn, may be reborn.” -William James Lemaire: Seeding the Verdant World

It had been so, so long since my soulmate had felt anything resembling escape.

We sat and talked about the process that would surely end his life. Our Benefactor, William, had proposed this journey to us at our final meeting. William, who’d given so much of his time and energy to the wretched around him, was generous in imparting his wisdom. He believed my soulmate could be saved - but only if he gave his life to the Verdant World. I remember looking at the swaying trees and long grass around us - trees and grass seeded by the numberless Saved. It was a defining moment.

“Grow what we love in whom you love.” -William James Lemaire: Seeding the Verdant World

I kissed the lips of my soulmate before removing them. He didn’t move. Tears sprouted from the corners of his closed eyes. The sweet taste of his kiss lingered as I poured honey in and around his new mouth. The honey was from bees which had pollinated the flowers grown from other Saved. The cycle was continuing with us. We whirl the wheel.

Thoughts on Scaphism??

Such a waste of honey 😔 what would Winnie the Pooh think?

Seriously though it’s so brutal like for what? If you don’t die to the bugs you’d waste away to starvation in milk and honey. Absolutely horrible
