We are back with another episode, deep diving into Ancient Greece!
In this episode, Raquel starts by giving the low-down on a topic quite close to her heart - the Eleusinian Mysteries! This ancient mystery cult (and other mystery cults along the same vein) are an absolute wonder... involving ecstatic experiences and absolute secrecy. What happens at Eleusis, stays at Eleusis...
Belle talks about the mysterious Antikythera Mechanism, an ancient analog computer which has been the study of some incredible recent research, giving insight into its function.
This was a fun episode! Let us know what you think about the mysteries and mechanism! We LOVE to hear from you!
