Turan is a large and mountainous land. You could trek across it by foot, but why not ride if you can. On these carriages you can ride overnight and sleep in comfort, like a king in a palanquin. #travel #history https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/turkey/trains/?s=mc

An old OT-64 SKOT armoured personnel carrier sits hidden inside a barn in Poland. A strange location to discover a Cold War-era machine.
The OT-64 was developed in 1959 as a joint project between Poland and Czechoslovakia. Production ran from 1963 to 1971, with about 4,500 units built.
The 8×8 design allowed the vehicle to handle difficult ground, able to float and move across water as well as land.

What I like about history and archeology is that it reminds us we're not different from our ancestors.
-Ah crap, I did a dog instead of a jackal.
Ahmedjeb, can you pass me the Tipp-Ex?
-Sure.
-Thanks.

#OnThisDay, 11 Mar 1959, Lorraine Hansberry's play, A Raisin in the Sun, is the first play by a Black woman to debut on Broadway.
Hansberry was a rising star when she died young of cancer. Her posthumous play, Young Gifted and Black, inspired her friend Nina Simone to write the song of the same name.
