*WARNING* EXPLICIT LANGUAGE USED*We’re back with Series 8 and kicking off the rage this week we welcome art historian, and Latin Consultant for Wandavision (is that not the coolest credit ever?) Dr. Kira Jones and she wants to rage ENOUGH WITH THE AI RECONSTRUCTIONS ALREADY!We’ll be talking about how many reconstructions are made from careless and false information. How Ancient Romans didn’t view portraits in the same way we would, how the Cleopatra coin is more about Mark Anthony than Cleopatra, and a lady whose funeral portrait came with interchangeable hair.There’s a couple of links below to images we’ll be discussing:The Nero reconstructionhttps://twitter.com/FlavianSophist/status/1100223901500669952/photo/1The Cleopatra Coinhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/ahistoryoftheworld/objects/1J_GFWtaSsaTgdslRNGBeAYou can follow Kira on Twitter @FalvianSophistSupport the showYou can follow History Rage on Twitter @HistoryRage and let us know what you wish people would just stop believing using the Hashtag #HistoryRage.You can join our 'Angry Mob' on Patreon as well. £5 per month gets you episodes 3 months early, the invite to choose questions, entry into our prize draws and the coveted History Rage mug.
