Agate is common in the basalt flows of the Jurassic Period here in Nova Scotia, which form the spectacular hills around the Bay of Fundy. Agate became the provincial gemstone of Nova Scotia in 1999.

A close-up studio shot shows a roughly rectangular rock with intricate, swirling patterns of white, pink, and reddish-brown. The top and right sides of the rock are a rougher, more solid reddish-brown and orange, while the front face reveals the polished, concentric, wavy bands. The patterns resemble a topographic map or the rings of a tree, with lighter colors in the center of the swirls. The rock sits on a plain white background.

Ancient body art wasn’t fashion — it was identity, power, and story. ✨🗿

Marks that meant something… and still echo today.

Jaguar god mask

Chavin culture
Peru
1000-700 BCE

The Chavin culture was a pre-Columbian civilization that flourished in the northern Andean high- lands of Peru from around 900 to 200 BC, known for its sophisticated art, religious influence, and engineering. Its ceremonial and pilgrimage cen-ter, Chavin de Huántar, was the source of a religious and cultural cult that spread across a wide area, making it an influential "mother culture" for later Andean civilizations. Key aspects include its religious system, centered on a powerful priesthood and complex multi-sensory rituals; its advanced art, seen in striking stone carvings and textiles; and its engineering skills, evident in the complex architecture of Chavin de Huántar, such as its drainage system.

8/20 Jacques Lipchitz, Man with Mandolin, 1917
Cubist limestone statue. One human holding what the title suggests to be a mandolin but which looks very much like a second human figure.

Mask of Oceanus
the god of the waters
bronze
4-500 BCE
Greece

#ancientart #greekmythology #bronzesculpture #archaeology #mythandart #ancientgreece #oceanus #bronze #mask #ancientworld #culturalheritage
Depicting the bearded face of a deity, likely Oceanus or Zeus-Ammon, the mask radiates both strength and mystery. Oceanus, in Greek mythology, was the divine personification of the endless river encircling the world — the primordial source of all life. His flowing beard, rendered here with almost hypnotic rhythm, evokes the waves and currents of the sea itself. Bronze works like this were created by master artisans over two thousand years ago, often to adorn ships, fountains, or sacred spaces. The crown of ivy leaves and berries hints at divine vitality and eternal renewal — a symbol that transcended cultures from Greece to Rome. The patina, now a mix of green and gold tones, tells its own story: centuries of history etched into metal. Looking at it today, one can almost imagine the flicker of torchlight dancing across its surface during ancient ceremonies — a reminder that art was never just decoration, but a bridge between mortals and gods.

❤️ Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard,”If we don’t clean up our mess,we’ll be history-Earth is now our only shareholder.” It goes on: If enough companies join together & decide the planet takes precedence over profit- “We can change the world…change capitalism for good.We might even save the planet.”
Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard says he's 'working harder than an 87-year-old should' but he's got no choice: 'the planet is in bad shape' | Fortune
Patagonia published a "Work in Progress" report for its mission to save the Earth. There's just a problem: "the prevailing extractive model of capitalism."
