How to Write in Cuneiform, the Oldest Writing System in the World: A Short Introduction
Teaching child visitors how to write their names using an unfamiliar or antique alphabet is a favorite activity of museum educators, but Dr. Irving Finkel, a cuneiform expert who specializes in ancient Mesopotamian medicine and magic, has grander designs.

A farmer traveled the world by foot, collecting 60,000 autographs in a book
Joseph Mikulec, a Croatian farmer, wanted to travel the world. And he did, getting autographs of kings, presidents and others as he walked more than 200,000 miles.

My wife and I just watched a show on Kanopy, called Language Matters with Bob Holman--by David Grubin, 2015.
It was just top-notch. It was about 3 endangered cultures: the 1st was on islands off N. Australia, the 2nd was Welsh, and the 3rd was Hawaiian.
I'm going to watch it again, right after I think about it some more.

#IainMBanks #Culture novel. Actually, surprisingly my first. That's the gift of both train travel and a good book. #bookstodon #booksky #FlyingLess

Long trip back to Copenhagen starts with EV to Lyon a packed but slowly emptying train to Geneva, during which I have been completely captured by an #IainMBanks #Culture novel. Actually, surprisingly my first. That's the gift of both train travel and a good book. #bookstodon #booksky #FlyingLess
