THE SCARY DEATH OF PRINCE IGOR (πŸ‘‘912-945)




THE SCARY DEATH OF PRINCE IGOR (πŸ‘‘912-945)

The Russian prince collected tribute from the conquered lands during the annual detour, starting from autumn and ending in spring. Furs and silver were collected in bags and sealed with a princely seal.

 The amount of requisitions was not regulated, sometimes accompanied by robbery and harassment of local residents. In the winter of 945, when Prince Igor (πŸ‘‘912-945) was already returning, collecting tribute from the land of the Drevlyans, his squad thought that it would be possible to take more. 

As an example, Igor was brought to his governor that his squad in abundance replenished with new weapons and clothes. Igor (πŸ‘‘912-945) could not stand it when someone else's luck exceeded his own.

 And he returned to the Drevlyans to take a tribute from them a second time, in violation of all agreements. The Drevlyans retaliated against Igor (πŸ‘‘912–945) as against the conqueror. The prince was captured and subjected to shameful and painful execution. He was tied to the tops of trees and, releasing bent trunks, tore in two.

Freedomite

Freedomite The  Freedomite  movement consists of a split-off of the Doukhobors, a community of Spiritual Christians began a mass migration from Russia to Canada in 1898. The Freedomite movement first appeared in 1902 in Saskatchewan, and later in the Kootenay and Boundary Districts of British Columbia. Freedomites began to divide from Doukhobors in 1902 in Saskatchewan, Canada, self-named as "God's people" and  Svobodniki  (Russian: "sovereign people"). The faction, later called "Freedomites", opposed land ownership, public schools, using work animals, etc. and are mainly known for protesting nude. By 1920 the common English term for them became  Sons of Freedom . Of about 20,000 active Doukhobors in Canada today, ancestors of about 2,500 were Freedomites, and many descendants have joined the USCC Community Doukhobors. Doctrine Freedomite meetings were similar to other spiritual Christian folk-Protestants from Russia. They met in simple buildings,

1852, a dark portrait now reveals a heart-breaking history

1852, a dark portrait now reveals a heart-breaking history ....  A few years ago I was asked to restore, and colourise this portrait by someone who had a very nice, but dark, and gloomy print of it.  They had no idea who she was, but they'd fallen in love with this fragile, and very naturally beautiful young woman who lived over 170 years ago. Recently a friend in the U.S. had stumbled on the image with the family history behind it, and to be honest I was a little saddened to learn of her fate ... "When Anna Sullivan Waters was born in 1833, her father, Thomas, was 35, and her mother, Ruth, was 31. She married Zachariah John Waters on June 7, 1851, in Centerville, Tennessee.  They had one surviving child during their marriage a son William M Cornelius "Neal" Waters. She died as a young mother in 1853 in Centerville, Tennessee, at the age of 20. She is buried with her two new born daughters they all died due to delivery complications that occurred during the birth of

US Army Command Sergeant Major Patrick J. Tadina..

US Army Command Sergeant Major Patrick J. Tadina..  Patrick J. Tadina was the longest continuously serving Ranger in Vietnam. He is one of the godfathers of the Army Rangers and is a legend within the Special Forces community to this day. “We were beside the trail, right on the border there. We had the art of hiding down so good. I’d already counted 25 of them passing. Hardcore North Vietnamese I could barely move, except my eyes. Here came another column, brush all over them, really sneaking along — scary stuff. We had to stay so still. They were only three or four meters away now, long files of them. Just the slightest movement, and they would detect us.” In a split second, a 5’5”’ American warrior and his five brothers-in-arms burst out of the brush like a pack of vicious wolves — but wolves armed with explosives. After the smoke cleared, these demons of the jungle melted back into the leaves, leaving a once-disciplined fighting force turned upside down and inside out, scattered and

MEDIEVAL TORTURES

MEDIEVAL TORTURES πŸͺžπŸ—‘️πŸ—️ These horrific tortures took place in Medieval Era. We can be fortunate and thankful we were born a couple centuries after... Take a peek...   1️⃣THE BRAZEN BULL IN ANCIENT GREECE ▪️Possibly,one of the the most imaginative means of "sadistic torment",the Brazen Bull,unleashed pain on victims in ancient Greece. ▪️The tyrant Phalaris, allegedly commissioned this torture device to exercise his sadistic streak. The-poor-victims were sealed inside the gleaming bull and slowly burned to death. ▪️A series of pipes on the inside made it sound as if the victim's wailing and thrashing were the sound of an actual bull,giving this torture implement a decidedly macabre streak. ▪️Even though this torture was not used commonly during the Middle Ages compared to its reputation in the Greek & Roman Eras,it was allegedly still used in Central Europe. This torture was similar to being boiled alive,just without the water. 2️⃣THE CROCODILE TUBE FOR THE HERETICS

Directly from ancient Rome, Carvilio's ring: The excruciating pain of a Roman mother for the death of her son.

Directly from ancient Rome, Carvilio's ring: The excruciating pain of a Roman mother for the death of her son. In 2000, during the removal of a high voltage pylon in a private property near Grottaferrata (a suburb of Rome) archaeologists found two sarcophagi, which contained the remains of the noble Aebutia Quarta and her son Carvilio Gemello, who lived in the first century after Christ. Carvilio died prematurely at the age of about eighteen, in mysterious circumstances (perhaps from poisoning). After losing the only male child, the roman noblewoman built a wonderful sarcophagus, with accurate finishing and refined inscriptions for his son.  Due to the floral ornaments placed at the entrance and inside, the archeological site today is known as the "Hypogeum of the garlands". When Ebuzia died (probably at the age of 40 or 50), she was buried in the same place of her son Carvilio. The two nobles were embalmed (probably because they were followers of the cult of Isis, which
