Sculptures like this were once erroneously interpreted as ‘yokes’ worn when playing the Mesoamerican ballgame. In fact they were used as molds for shaping the protective leather belts secured to the waists of players to cushion the impact of the heavy rubber ball. The ball court itself was a carefully circumscribed sacred space and a symbolic entrance to the Underworld for the losers in what was a life-and-death contest. The toad lives at the threshold between the earthly and subterranean worlds.

Some 3,000 years old! Carved from greenstone, this Olmec sculpture known as El Señor de las Limas originates from the State of Veracruz. Dating to approximately 1000–600 BCE, it depicts a figure holding a baby with features incised on its shoulders and knees representing early deities.

"It's Sekhremar Charlie Brown!"

Happy Halloween! Or as the denizens of Greenstone call it; Sekhremar! Derived from "Secret March" it's a holiday that celebrates the smuggling of Lord Phlesius out of the capital via a grand costumed procession. Read more here!

Greenstone Ridge Southwest Webcam, Isle Royale National Park

#NPS #NationalParkService #IsleRoyale
From one of the highest Isle Royale peaks at 1,133 feet above sea level (roughly 530 feet above Lake Superior), the Greenstone Ridge Southwest Webcam at the peak of Mount Ojibway gazes across the spine of the Greenstone Ridge from the Ojibway Tower. It captures a southwest vantage point, a swath from Moskey Basin on the left to Sargent Lake on the right. The webcam is solar powered and communicates multiple times per day, year-round, when power and communications infrastructure allows.

After nearly 30 years of past partners throwing me away or cheating or abusing me, I finally found my forever person, my husband. We have been together for 7 years and married for 4.

He came here from New Zealand.

He gave me a necklace with a greenstone heart, which is special in his culture.--
