The Ching, 2021
For the last four years, on the first day of Spring, I've followed one of London's many brooks. Starting from where it outflows and tracing it back to where it rises. This year it’s The Ching. Flows out into the River Lea, rises in the southern tip of Epping Forest.
Knossos (alternative spellings Knossus, Cnossus, Greek Κνωσός, pronounced [knoˈsos]) is the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete and considered as Europe's oldest city.
The name Knossos survives from ancient Greek references to the major city of Crete. The identification of Knossos with the Bronze Age site is supported by tradition and by the Roman coins that were scattered over the fields surrounding the pre-excavation site, then a large mound named Kephala Hill, elevation 85 m (279 ft) from current sea level. Many of them were inscribed with Knosion or Knos on the obverse and an image of a Minotaur or Labyrinth on the reverse, both symbols deriving from the myth of King Minos, supposed to have reigned from Knossos.[5] The coins came from the Roman settlement of Colonia Julia Nobilis Cnossus, a Roman colony placed just to the north of, and politically including, Kephala. The Romans believed they had colonized Knossos.[6] After excavation, the discovery of the Linear B tablets, and the decipherment of Linear B by Michael Ventris, the identification was confirmed by the reference to an administrative center, ko-no-so, Mycenaean Greek Knosos, undoubtedly the palace complex. The palace was built over a Neolithic town. During the Bronze Age, the town surrounded the hill on which the palace was built.
The palace was excavated and partially restored under the direction of Arthur Evans in the earliest years of the 20th century. Its size far exceeded his original expectations, as did the discovery of two ancient scripts, which he termed Linear A and Linear B, to distinguish their writing from the pictographs also present. From the layering of the palace Evans developed de novo an archaeological concept of the civilization that used it, which he called Minoan, following the pre-existing custom of labelling all objects from the location Minoan.
The site of Knossos was discovered in 1878 by Minos Kalokairinos. The excavations in Knossos began in 1900 by the English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851–1941) and his team, and continued for 35 years. Its size far exceeded his original expectations, as did the discovery of two ancient scripts, which he termed Linear A and Linear B, to distinguish their writing from the pictographs also present. From the layering of the palace Evans developed an archaeological concept of the civilization that used it, which he called Minoan, following the pre-existing custom of labelling all objects from the location Minoan.
Since their discovery, the ruins have undergone a history of their own, from excavation by renowned archaeologists, education and tourism, to occupation as a headquarters by governments warring over the control of the eastern Mediterranean in two world wars. This site history is to be distinguished from the ancient.

Thanks for your visit, faves, and kind comments.
As mentioned on the reposting of my slideshow "Suburban Dreams 65 Photographs", I will feature a number of my personal highlights from that collection. I have shown very few individually before.

Das hatte ich noch nie erlebt...
Nein, auf dem Foto ist nicht der tägliche 60800 zu sehen, sondern eine Sonderleistung Kalkleerwagen aus Bremen, die eigentlich schon tags zuvor zugestellt werden sollte. Und vor diesem Fotozug kam bei schönstem Wetter auch noch der besagte Zug von HKM, auch mit 232 bespannt, somit landeten gleich zwei schöne Bilder auf der Speicherkarte.

The fifth image in this series of images I took in and around downtown Toronto. The tall ship Empire Sandy, which runs chartered tours along Toronto's waterfront was originally built as an Englishman/ Larch Deep Sea-class tugboat for war service by the British government in 1943. After the war she served a number of different roles under different names. In the early 1970s she was to be sold for scrap, but fortunately got a new lease on life when she was bought by a new owner who had her completely rebuilt and converted as a three-masted schooner in the style of the 1880s.

Bouvreuil pivoine (Pyrrhula pyrrhula) Femelle.
3 clichés à voir !
Le Bouvreuil pivoine est une espèce de passereaux d'Eurasie appartenant à la famille des Fringillidae.
Il vit et se nourrit en couple, à la lisière d'un bois ou d'une haie. Il disparaît rapidement si on l'approche. Visiteur régulier des petits jardins, surtout dans les régions riches en vergers, il reste très discret, à l'abri de la végétation.
Sa livrée élégante (mâle) lui vaut d'être l'un des passereaux les plus populaires
