🔴 **Qaryat al-Fāw/Qaryatum dhāt Kāhilim: On the identity of the god Kahl**

“_Despite his name being recorded in various texts and inscriptions on numerous objects that confirm his role as the city's patron god, scant information exists regarding his attributes or sphere of influence. Nonetheless, clues on some of his characteristics can be gleaned from coins bearing his likeness._”

Continued thread

Trump ha ragione nell'affermare che la portata della distruzione nella Striscia è inimmaginabile e che esiste un pericolo per i residenti, tra le rovine e le bombe inesplose.
Ma invece di punire i responsabili della distruzione, li sostiene e progetta con loro nuovi crimini.

Ma il crimine del secolo non avverrà, perché i palestinesi non accetteranno di lasciare la Striscia di Gaza e nessun Paese arabo accetterà di accoglierne centinaia di migliaia e di essere complice del crimine di una seconda #Nakba.

Ma al di la di tutto, perché Trump sta promuovendo questa idea delirante?
Qual è il suo vero obiettivo?
È una minaccia che può essere usata per estorcere la normalizzazione dei rapporti con l'#Arabia Saudita? ⬇️4

The hamerkop (Scopus umbretta) is a medium-sized wading bird. It is the only living species in the genus Scopus and the family Scopidae. Its closest relatives are thought to be the pelicans and the shoebill, in the order Pelecaniformes.

🔴 **Human migration from the Levant and Arabia into Yemen since Last Glacial Maximum**

_“Our results paint a picture of Yemen being in a crossroads, marked by the large-scale baseline genetic diversity that largely evolved many millennia. Yemen witnessed an initial gene flow pattern defined by the more ancient markers from the rest of the Arabian Peninsula and the Levant that started as early as the Epipaleolithic period followed by population isolation and limited expansion. Yemen witnessed additional, but less substantial, flow from southwest Asia, Jordan and Syria through the Nabateans during the active incense trade between the Levant and Yemen, from Arabia during the Islamic Expansion, and a subsequent one from the west and southwest dominated by East Africa.”_
