By pushing the Tartars into an earlier, "Mongol invasion" narrative, mainstream history divorces them from their real context, potentially a highly advanced and interconnected Islamic civilisation in Europe.🤔
The image of Tartaria as an enigmatic, advanced civilisation overlaps with the possibility that this "Old World" was deeply tied to Islamic culture and heritage.
Image
By recognising the Tartars not as Mongol invaders but as Muslim inhabitants of Europe, a broader re-evaluation of European history becomes necessary, one that challenges the timelines, identities and power structures established by mainstream historians. Image

Imagine cruising down the highway with a turntable spinning your favourite tunes right in the car. Though short-lived, these in-car phonographs marked the automotive industry’s first attempt to let drivers and passengers curate their own music playlists on the go. 1950s Image
The first in-car record player, the “Highway Hi-Fi,” was nothing short of revolutionary.

Developed by Dr. Peter Goldmark, head of CBS Laboratories the Highway Hi-Fi was initially offered as a factory-installed option in Chrysler vehicles. 1956 Image

The Strange Obsession with Pig-Faced Ladies in Regency London 🐷
1/ In 1815, amidst the celebrations of Britain's victory over Napoleon, Londoners became captivated by a bizarre urban legend: the Pig-Faced Lady. But where did this fascination come from? Image
2/ Belief in witchcraft was widespread, leading to assumptions that such afflictions were caused by curses. One story tells of a pregnant woman who refused to give money to a beggar, resulting in the vagrant cursing her, causing her female child to be born with a pig’s head. Image
3/ One of the earliest examples is Tannakin Skinker, a wealthy Dutch woman cursed with a pig's face. Her story was popularised through ballads and chapbooks, blending folklore with moral lessons about kindness and charity. Image
