Most Brutal And Horrific Form Of Execution In The Acient History. - Education

Consider yourself lucky if you are reading this, you most likely not to have lived in a society with extreme judgements, sentences, and punishments. Back in the good old days if you did something wrong, for example stole a goat, chicken, Adultery, you were pretty much assured being handed a death sentence. In those days there was no hanging around on Death Row, contemplating the errors of your ways whilst waiting for some form of humane, painless death. Executions in the ancient history seems to be so barbaric and devices used were built with careful engineering to push the guilty to feel extreme and prolonged pain before death. The forms of execution listed below really are so barbaric that you might question your faith in human nature. Blowing from the gun. With the invention of the cannon came this wonderfully imaginative way of executing enemy combatants. The basic method was to tie the unfortunate victim to the barrel of a cannon and fire it. Horrific as this sounds I imagine it w...

How often did the Romans have sex?





Romans were pretty open about sex. Their society wasn't as prudish as later Western societies became.

They had a relaxed attitude toward sex, seeing it as a natural part of life.

For instance, it was common for Roman homes to have erotic art, and even the city of Pompeii, frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, reveals walls adorned with some pretty explicit murals.


But how often? Well, it varied. Elite Romans, who had more leisure time, probably engaged in sexual activities more frequently.

They often had banquets and gatherings that sometimes turned into wild parties known as convivia.

These weren't just your average get-togethers; they could involve a lot of drinking, feasting, and yes, sometimes sexual escapades.

Interestingly, there's a lesser-known story about a Roman named Gaius Petronius, who was a member of Emperor Nero's court.

Petronius wrote the Satyricon, a satirical novel that gives us a peek into the indulgent lifestyles of the Roman elite.

One of the tales involves a lavish dinner party where guests ended up engaging in some rather risqué activities after too much wine.

This gives us a hint that, at east among the upper classes, sexual encounters could be quite frequent, especially during these social events.


Now, for the common folk, life was tougher and more labor-intensive, so their sexual frequency probably wasn't as high as that of the aristocracy.

But they still had their fair share of fun.

Public baths, for example, were social hubs where people might engage in flirtations and occasionally more.

These baths were a mix of leisure and socializing, and sometimes, the lines between socializing and intimate encounters blurred.

And let's not forget the Vestal Virgins, priestesses of Vesta, the goddess of the hearth. These women took a vow of chastity for 30 years. If they broke this vow, the punishment was severe – being buried alive.

This strict approach to their chastity shows that while Rome was sexually liberal in many ways, it also had strict boundaries in certain areas.


So, to sum it up, the frequency of sex in Roman times depended on one's social status and lifestyle.

The elite probably enjoyed it more often due to their leisurely lives, while the working class had to fit it in around their demanding daily routines.

And with public baths, parties, and an overall relaxed attitude towards sex, the Romans certainly didn't shy away from it.

Cheers to the Romans, who knew how to mix business with pleasure in ways that continue to fascinate us today!

Marched to their deaths.

Marched to their deaths: Sickening ISIS slaughter continues as 250 soldiers captured at Syrian airbase are stripped then led to the desert for mass execution  Sickening footage appears to show Islamic State militants parading around 250 captured soldiers through the desert in their underwear before they are killed and their bodies piled on the bare earth. An Islamic State fighter claimed the men were from the Syrian government's Tabqa air base which extremists seized on Sunday, potentially handing them warplanes, tanks, artillery and ammunition. The video, which has not been independently verified, is too graphic to be published in full. It begins by showing dozens of men being marched through the desert wearing only their underwear. It then fades to black, resuming with a pile of bloodied bodies stacked on top of one another. As the horrific footage progresses it pans slowly across a vast line of men who appear to be dead, and whose bodies have been laid out one by one. The line f...

A horrific photograph of an execution in eastern Europe during the second world war

 A horrific photograph of an execution in eastern Europe during the second world war can be seen in Holocaust archives and museums around the world.  But who are the killers, who are the victims, who took it - and why? Janina Struk felt compelled to investigate Two naked men stand on the edge of a pit, an older man several feet behind them, while a man and a boy, also naked, walk into the frame. Surrounding them are seven perpetrators, some armed, some in uniform, some not.  A uniformed man on the far right-hand side of the picture is standing on a mound of earth, presumably dug from the pit, seemingly directing proceedings. The caption reads: "Sniatyn - tormenting Jews before their execution. 11.V.1943." I first saw a copy of this image as I was filing through photographs in the Polish Underground Movement (1939-1945) Study Trust in west London.  At the time I did not understand what I was looking at. I had never encountered a scene quite like it before. The pitiful...

Beria cried like a baby when he heard he was going to be executed

Beria and Stalin Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, is a person for whom the world even if it wished in a moment of lucid embrace, would find itself with an impossible task to show sympathy for. Beria in his last moments, pleaded for his own life, it was ironic as he had been in charge of the NKVD the predecessor of the KGB, and he had personally overseen hundreds of thousands of deaths if not millions. Much of what the world knows about Beria are the horrific deeds he committed. It is likely much of his reputation has been made worse, but this is not to say that he was not instrumental in committing war crimes. His actions included acts of depravity against women, and their murder while head of the NKVD as well. Beria had not just committed crimes but been part of a system he had a major role in creating. The Soviet Union became a state which could not even exist without constant fear of arrests, accusations, torture, forced confessions and death, though these elements are not unique to it al...

Pastor Marries a Girl on Her 18th Birthday. Cop Notices Something ODD & Stops Everything! Martha, the estranged daughter of Pastor Michael, expresses her concerns about his upcoming marriage to a young woman named Edna. Martha finds it odd that Pastor Michael had never mentioned Edna before, that she had no job or known family or friends, and that she was going to be 18 on the wedding day, making the age difference between her father and Edna 25 years. Martha's suspicions increase when he learns that Edna had revealed this; I'm sexually aroused with no one and been living with Pastor Michael for the past few months. Officer Jake, a friend of Martha's, agrees to help her investigate. They discover that Edna is an orphan who had been in and out of foster homes and had been living on the streets for several months before coming to their small town. Despite their concerns, they are unable to find any concrete evidence of wrongdoing on Pastor Michael's part. However, Jak...

Woman in Iran before the Islamic Revolution

The Islamic Revolution of 1979 brought seismic changes to Iran, not least for women. One area that has come under scrutiny is the way women dress and wear their hair - the old Shah, in the 1930s, banned the veil and ordered police to forcibly remove headscarves. But in the early 1980s, the new Islamic authorities imposed a mandatory dress code that required all women to wear the hijab. Here are some images showing what life was like for Iranian women before the institution of clerical rule, and how it has changed since. IMAGE SOURCE,A. ABBAS / MAGNUM PHOTOS Studying at Tehran University in 1977: While many women were already in higher education at the time of the revolution, the subsequent years saw a marked increase in the number attending university. This was in part because the authorities managed to convince conservative families living in rural areas to allow their daughters to study away from home. "They tried to stop women from attending university, but there was such a bac...
