📖 (1/5) Leviticus 8:9

וישם אתהמצנפת עלראשו וישם עלהמצנפת אלמול פניו את ציץ הזהב נזר הקדש כאשר צוה יהוה אתמשה

And he set the headdress on his head; and on the headdress, in front, he put the gold frontlet, the holy diadem—as GOD had commanded Moses.

Chocolate is great but I have to vote for #Chrysocolla, which has appeared in art since antiquity as a gem, as a “glue” as solder for goldsmithing and as a pigment.

Here we have ancient Buddhist murals in China, Medieval mural in Italy & ancient Peruvian art.

The golden octopus 🐙
Or rather a golden Octopus Frontlet (i.e. a headdress) crafted during the Moche civilisation (300-600 A.D), then looted from a burial site in what is now northern Peru.

It’s #button day for #mARTch and #makersMARTch so I'll post, (for the first time ever publicly), this 1980's photograph I took of Professor Bill Holm dancing, wearing his #ButtonBlanket cape, #Frontlet and carrying his #RavenRattle, in front of a large dance screen that I painted with #formlines.
