@caitlinrgreen @rosieweetch @medievalhistory Perhaps this was an ancient sport.
@mjd1735 @rosieweetch @medievalhistory Hah, well, perhaps....! ;)pic.twitter.com/2slGH0APkt
@caitlinrgreen @mjd1735 @rosieweetch there's clearly an awesome story behind that b&w photo
@caitlinrgreen @mjd1735 @rosieweetch yup, awesome. Also, did not realize people would name a child Phaedra; clearly not big myth-readers...
@medievalhistory @caitlinrgreen @rosieweetch Great clip! Nothing like that Technicolor color palette. Poseidon rode dolphins also...
@caitlinrgreen @rosieweetch @medievalhistory Or Arion riding the Dolphin in Herodotus!
@Phyllida1234 Very true! :)
@caitlinrgreen @rosieweetch didn't Dionysius also ride a dolphin? Or did the D'Aulaires let me down? Greek religion is so confusing...
@medievalhistory he's def associated with dolphins and Arion, a Dionysiac poet, certainly rode one... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arion
@caitlinrgreen @DorothyKing @rosieweetch @medievalhistory Taras on way to Tarentum.
@drususclaudius not sure you should be discussing your invasion plans on Twitter ...?
