Dr. SFG's blog beginning June 2007
Out of all the pictures on the slide, I like the sculptures and the chess pieces.
I found out Thomas Seymour was Jane's older brother!Could you tell me about the the lion hunt from Nineveh?? I saw pictures and it looks like a good story.Sorry about J.K Rowling's lack of portrait :(
I thought you might like the chess pieces. You know Moma gave you all a replica set of those chess pieces. It is somewhere in your brothers' room I believe.
Oh, thank you for finding about about Thomas Seymour. I could not remember. How did you figure that out? Did you google his name?
The lion hunt was very interesting. The law said only the king could hunt lions but there were lots of lions (smaller than Africa's lions) and the king had little time. So what they did, they would capture the lions and keep them in a big pen. When the king had his day for lion hunting, they would set the lions free and drive them to where the king was waiting in the chariot to kill them. Then he would spear them from the chariot. But there was one panel where a lion tried attacking the chariot and was speared. It was pretty intense to see.You could really tell how much the lions were suffering as they died. One lion was even vomiting blood.
I typed it into google and I looked at a few sources :)Gruesome story.
