"Long before English existed as a language, however, a headless tribe was thought to roam the distant reaches of the world. They were known variously as Blemmyes or Akephaloi, and later discovered again in the New World as Ewaipanoma.
It wasn’t that this species lacked a face. The eyes, nose, and mouth were all present on their chest."

Interesting fact I've made up: just over half of all uploads to YouTube over the last few days have been full videos of #SteamboatWillie unedited.

@aaronm Sorry to hear of Italy's move in the wrong direction, although it sounds as if this is targetted at commercial use, & completely uncommercial use may be covered by the current guidelines? but I'm glad that #OpenAccess, the #CreativeCommons & #PublicDomainArt have defenders as articulate as #Europeana!
Thank you for keeping us updated on progress digitising the #Vatican #manuscripts.

Breaking my combo of scenery at night, this oil painting from the 1800s is well worth it. Wow.
