Today’s #WeeklyFluff: Meet Leia, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier Puppy
Follow @leia.staffy on Instagram to keep up with Leia’s daily adventures.
Hello, world! Today’s #WeeklyFluff is all about Leia (@leia.staffy), a 7-month-old Staffordshire bull terrier who lives in Sweden. “I would describe Leia as fearless, curious, happy, adventurous and extremely cuddly!” says Leia’s human, Ellie, who teaches children with autism and ADHD, and one day plans to certify Leia as a therapy dog. “Right now, Leia works with me as a school dog,” she says. “She helps the kids stay motivated in school and listens to them when they need to talk.” When she’s not in school, Leia loves romping around in nature. “She LOVES snow,” says Ellie. “She loves to eat, play and run around in it - everything!”

THE STAFFORDSHIRE HOARD
The publication of this amazing archaeological discovery is now Open Access, check it out here!
While it isn’t Classical archaeology (my main did), there are some amazing objects here (garnet studded gold? yes please) and there is even a wonderfully abbreviated passage of Latin from the Vulgate bible:
[S]URGE:DNE:DISEPENTURINIMICITUIE/T
[F]UGENT QUIODERUNTTEAFACIETUA
SURGE DNE DISEPINTUR […MIC]ITUIE/TFUGIU[N/T]QUIO DE
[R]UNTTE AF ACIE TU[..]DIUIE NOS[.R.]
“The inscribed text is a rendering of a well-known Vulgate text, which appears in the following form in Numbers 10, 35: cumque elevaretur arca dicebat Moses surge Domine et dissipentur inimici tui et fugiant qui oderunt te a facie tua, ‘When he had lifted up the ark, Moses said “Rise up, Lord, and may your enemies be dispersed and those who hate you flee from your face”’.” Source.
