This Is A Really Interesting Fact And Was Made Into An Exhibition In Germany! And I Was So Used To The

This is a really interesting fact and was made into an exhibition in Germany! And I was so used to the simplicity of white marble statues!

An ultraviolet light reveals how ancient Greek statues really looked like. UV light makes many organic compounds fluoresce. Art dealers use UV lights to check if art has been touched up, since older paints have a lot of organic compounds and modern paints have relatively little. On ancient Greek statues, tiny fragments of pigment still left on the surface glow bright, illuminating more detailed patterns. (Source)

Where Apple Gets the Tantalum for Your iPhone

Nearly all computers, cellphones and other high-tech gadgets use tantalum, a pearly, blue-gray mineral found in Brazil and Australia but also in Rwanda and the DRC, which has endured what the International Rescue Committee calls the bloodiest conflict since World War II. More than 5 million people have been killed there since 1998, rape has been used as a weapon of war, and slave labor and conscription of child soldiers are common. Named for a Greek mythological figure doomed to spend eternity in shallow water, with fruit hanging forever out of his reach, tantalum is traded on a market that is one of the world’s most secretive. Tantalite, the ore bearing tantalum, is not traded on commodities exchanges but instead bought and sold through shadowy networks of dealers, so its origins are easily disguised. Refined into coltan at smelters in countries such as China, Kazakhstan and the United States, the mineral is sold to manufacturers that make capacitors, high-tech devices that hold electrical charges and are essential to everything from iPads to airplanes.

“And however that might be, Idril loved Maeglin not at all; and knowing his thought of her she loved him the less […] But as the years passed still Maeglin watched Idril, and waited, and his love turned to darknes in his heart.”
