I like this one, it makes you think about the little idiosyncrasies and individual moments of the ancient world that have been lost to time
They worship Goran Visnjic?
What, do you not?
False. The concept of weekends off was due to work that the unions did over 50K years later.
Sacrifices are a year round, daily occurence.
Eh, most cultures has a concept of a day off. Ancient Babylon arguably created the 7-day week with the seventh as a special observance (and the 28th as a mandatory day off). Judaism has had the Sabbath (arguably related to the Babylonian 7th day off). The USSR, in trying to eliminate religion, changed the work week to 5 days (later six) and had one day off to rest. The French Republic had something similar, but used 10 days. The Chinese had a similar concept (forgot the number of days) where people would have a day off to wash their hair (among other things).
So there’s a lot of evidence that people generally value having a day off now and then.
Anyway, I was going to end it all in a joke, but now I’m thoroughly sidetracked with seriousness. Hmph.
TIL, thank you!
