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...

There Was a Job in Ancient Egypt Called the Guardian of the King's Anus

 No, this is not a joke.




While it might sound like the punchline to a particularly odd joke, the role of "Shepherd of the King’s Rectum" was a serious and highly respected position in ancient Egypt. During the Sixth Dynasty (2345–2181 BC), the physician Iry (or Ir-en-akhty) was bestowed this exalted title.

The pharaoh was considered a god, and caring for his health was an immense honor. One of the crucial aspects of this care involved the administration of enemas. Yes, you read that right. The pharaoh would undergo a colonic lavage using a golden cannula inserted into the rectum. The mixture for these enemas could include water, milk, beer, or wine, often sweetened with honey and infused with medicinal herbs. The purpose was to prevent the buildup of toxins in the body. This procedure was carried out three times a month.

Interestingly, the Egyptians believed they had observed the Nile ibis performing a similar action, inspiring the development of this medical practice.

So, the next time you think about the challenges of modern-day jobs, consider the unique and rather intimate responsibilities of the Guardian of the King's Anus in ancient Egypt

Shock of the nude: Femen's fight for women's rights comes to London

Shock of the nude: Femen's fight for women's rights comes to London Activist group Femen caused anarchy in the Ukraine when a male co-founder suggested they bare their breasts to make a bigger impact. But in an age of outrage at Page 3, can such tactics bring about long-lasting change — or are they little more than topless stunts? Viv Groksop is briefed on their next battleground: London Walking down a grungy street in the 18th arrondissement, not far from Montmartre, it’s fairly obvious which building is the headquarters of the Ukrainian-born women’s movement Femen. Emanating from what looks like a disused cinema come ear-piercing Amazonian battle cries. Inside are piles of clothes topped with discarded bras. There’s a brush and a palette of war paint on the table. There are slogans daubed on the walls: ‘Muslim women, let’s get naked’; ‘Femen is the name of the new woman’; ‘Women, spring is coming’; ‘Our mission is protest. Our weapon is bare breasts.’ And one in Russian: ‘Put...

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...

An Intimate Look Inside a 1950s Tokyo Bath House

Caution, this post will make you feel like a bit of a Peeping Tom. We’re about to take a rather voyeuristic tour of a Japanese bath house in the year 1951, with LIFE photographer Michael Rougier. It was the year Japan’s post-war occupation by the allied countries would come to an end but the bath house has clearly grown accustomed to its Western clientele of enthusiastic American officers. Rougier captures some telling moments between the bath house ladies and their male clients; at times maternal and respectful and others more flirtatious and audacious. Let’s take our appointment and watch these two cultures curiously collide in the unlikeliest of settings.. All photographs fished out of the LIFE archives .

This iconic photograph marks the end of the career of matador Álvaro Munero. In the midst of the battle, he suddenly repented and sat down at the edge of the field.

This will make you feel sad This iconic photograph marks the end of the career of matador Álvaro Munero. In the midst of the battle, he suddenly repented and sat down at the edge of the field. Subsequently, in an interview, Alvaro will tell: “Suddenly I saw not horns, but the eyes of a bull. He stood in front of me and started looking at me. Just stood and watched, making no attempt to attack. The innocence that is in the eyes of all animals looks towards me with a plea for help. It was like a cry for justice and met his horrible Somewhere deep inside me, I suddenly realized that he was addressing me in the same way we address God in prayer: “I don't want to fight you, please leave me, Because I have done nothing wrong to you. You can kill me if you want, kill me if you want, but I do not want to fight you." And I, reading it in his eyes, felt like the worst creature on earth and hindered the war. After that I became a vegetarian and stops fighting bullfights. " This stor...

My Husband Ridiculed My Postpartum Figure at a Work Event – His Boss Confronted Him the Following Day

 My name is Claire, and I would like to share a poignant chapter from my life, which began with deep personal humiliation but evolved into an unexpected journey of empowerment and new opportunities. This transformation unfolded during and after a corporate event at my husband Tim’s boss’s luxurious residence—an evening that was meant to be filled with merriment but instead became a pivotal turning point in my life due to a thoughtless comment made by my husband. As we arrived at the opulent venue, the grandeur of the setting and the elegant attire of the guests heightened my anxiety. Despite wearing my best dress, I felt painfully self-conscious about my postpartum body, having given birth just three months prior. Tim seemed particularly eager to introduce me to his colleagues and their spouses, perhaps hoping to impress his boss. The atmosphere inside was vibrant, with guests engaging in lively conversations while enjoying fine wine and gourmet delicacies. As I attempted to mingle...

American soldiers take cover on the Nibelnungen bridge over the Rhine river, as German snipers at the opposite bank take aim, killing one

American soldiers take cover on the Nibelnungen bridge over the Rhine river, as German snipers at the opposite bank take aim, killing one. Worms, Germany. 28 March 1945 Henry Nicholas John Gunther (June 6, 1895 – November 11, 1918) was an American soldier and possibly the last soldier of any of the belligerents to be killed during World War I. He was killed at 10:59 a.m., about one minute before the Armistice was to take effect at 11:00 a.m The Armistice with Germany was signed by 5:00 a.m., local time, but it would only come into force at 11:00 a.m. Gunther's squad approached a roadblock of two German machine guns in the village of Chaumont-devant-Damvillers near Meuse, in Lorraine. Gunther got up, against the orders of his close friend and now sergeant, Ernest Powell, and charged with his bayonet. The German soldiers, already aware of the Armistice that would take effect in one minute, tried to wave Gunther off. He kept going and fired "a shot or two". When he got too c...

Half-Naked Women Advertise Funeral Service In ‘Tasteless’ Video

  Video Instagram/honorim.ruA Russian funeral home has taken a somewhat unconventional approach when it comes to advertising their services, using half-nude women to promote final resting ceremonies “for all categories of citizens” on social media. Honorim.ru released a 42-second clip which many are calling “tasteless and offensive,” but many people are pretty intrigued. The clip shows lingerie-clad women in stripper heels posing on and around coffins. One of the women even jumps inside and writhes around while another posed sexily with her leg atop the casket. It’s… something else. In a separate part of the ad, one of the women wearing a thong kneeled on top of the casket with her bum in the air while another did a backbend inside of the coffin with one leg in the air. I’m not sure the message it’s trying to convey! There were some confusing parts of the ad as well.In one section, some pantsless women posed in hoodies, though it’s unclear if they were advertising the clothing...

On September 11, 1916, a homeless man named Red Eldridge was hired as an assistant elephant trainer by the Sparks World Famous Shows circus. His only job role was knowing how to use an elephant stick (literally a sharp spear). The day after he was hired, the circus announced a show in the town of Kingsport , Tennessee , featuring an elephant parade.Tragedy occurred when Mary the Elephant went on a rampage: while she was nibbling on a watermelon rind, Eldridge tried to keep her in line by prodding her behind the ear with a hook. Onlookers - stunned and helpless - watched as she grabbed Eldridge with her trunk, threw him against a drinks stand and stomped on his head, crushing it.Within minutes, the local blacksmith who thought she had gone mad shot her 5 bullets, but to no effect. Some spectators then began to chant: " Kill the elephant! Let's kill him ." Meanwhile, the mayors of several nearby towns threatened not to allow the circus to visit if Mary attended the show. So...
