So let's try to think about why the inner twin world are so "stone faced"?! Well there is one beef I have with the Stone Faces that I made reference to earlier today:
After venturing to each of their wiki pages, only one is depicted with a stone bust:
Aspasia. Discovered in 1777, copy of a
5th-century BC original
So my beef is that they're all male. Hey, c'mon, isn't it time to put the stone face of a woman Philosopher in with the boys?! Surely there's a stone face of an Ancient Greek woman philosopher kicking around out there?! Here's a list of Ancient Greek women philosophers
- Maitreyi (later Vedic period)
- Gargi Vachaknavi (born about 700 BC)
- Theano of Croton (6th century BC)
- Aristoclea of Delphi (6th century BC)
- Aspasia of Miletus (approx. 470–400 BC)
- Arete of Cyrene (4th century BC)
- Sosipatra of Ephesus (4th century BC)
- Hipparchia of Maroneia (4th century BC)
- Nicarete of Megara (flourished around 300 BC)
- Catherine of Alexandria (282–305)
- Ptolemais of Cyrene (3rd century BC)
- Aesara of Lucania (3rd century BC)
- Diotima of Mantinea (appears in Plato's Symposium)
- Ban Zhao (c. 35–100)D2
- Xie Daoyun (before 340–after 399)
- Theodora (5th-6th century AD)
After venturing to each of their wiki pages, only one is depicted with a stone bust:

Taylor Caldwell's Glory and the Lightning (1974) is another novel that portrays the historical relationship of Aspasia and Pericles.[65]Note from Caldwell's wiki page:
Janet Miriam Holland Taylor Caldwell (September 7, 1900 – August 30, 1985)And this stands out mainly because of the following from my previous post:
- Holmes Sterling Morrison, Jr. (August 29, 1942 – August 30, 1995)
He died one day after his birthday, and so the cluster expands:
Now don't go pissing off the inner twin "Matriarchal" world any more than they already are!!
- "August 21, 22, 23, 24, 25(x3), 26, 27, 28(x2), 29(x2), 30, 31(x3)/Date Sequence" pattern-cluster.
