1. Either on this day or tomorrow in 454, the western magister militum Aetius was murdered by emperor Valentinian III himself. Procopius styled both Bonifatius and him 'last of the Romans', yet his career was that of a warlord causing immense damage to the Imperial West. Thread.

'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice' is not as great as the original, but still very enjoyable. Michael Keaton's performance alone makes it worth a watch. And even at the cusp of turning 60, whilst playing a stitched up corpse, Monica Bellucci remains as ever a sight for sore eyes.

From my little corner of the Late Antique movie sphere, this is exactly how I feel about the 2004 King Arthur movie. I regret nothing.

Helaas is Stijn Baert zijn opinie een tweesnijdend zwaard. Want wetenschapscommunicatie (= nota bene géén kerntaak) vervalt dan ook. Waardoor Bart Van Loo gelijk krijgt, dat ook ik mijn publieksboeken niet meer aan de universiteit zou kunnen schrijven. Boer pas op je ganzen.

Recently I had the pleasure of joining my first editorial board meeting of Brill's Warfare in the Ancient Mediterranean World. Our series is rapidly expanding and we'll have two new volumes out before 2024 is through, starting with 'War in the Ancient Iranian Empires' next month!
