    During C1st, a burial tradition developed in Egypt in which the face of deceased was covered with a wooden panel bearing his/her portrait. Known as the Fayum portraits (as most were found in that district), their style influenced the Byzantine icon.

    I just made a mistake &watched beheading video of one of the Scandinavian tourists in Morocco. It's TERRIFYING. I heard in video: "this is in revenge for our brothers in Hajin". Hajin is a Syrian town, an ISIS stronghold taken by SDF earlier this week.
