#AncientSiteSunday - Nysa on the Maeander was an ancient city in Caria, nestled deep within the valleys of the Aegean, 50 km east of Ephesus. Today, it is a very atmospheric archaeological site with ruins from the Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine periods scattered along the mountain slope.

Whoops! That moment when you forget to post a draft until two days later: from July 4th.
Rebecca Littler Metcalf was born the same day the Declaration of Independence was signed.
Research has found her headstone was engraved incorrectly adding an "e" to the end of her last name.
She died in 1861.
