‘Paleolibertarian’ is a still-born concept, but it came closest to an accurate descriptor. I have tried on a few mantles from the libertarian wardrobe, but none of them were a good fit.
I have always preferred monarchy, and enjoyed the company of monarchists, but the libertarians were the ones who provided conversation and open minds, and so I tended to stick with them. Most of my close associates are libertarians, anarcho-capitalists, or traditionalist constitutional monarchists who I have met through the Liberals. I have never been attracted to mainstream views, but I joined the Australian Outer Party a few years ago, and every now and then I come across someone who thinks well. Since high school I have been sceptical about modernity and the concept of leftist progress. Suffice to say I am Australian, and as you have probably gleaned, my academic focus was ancient history, but it came with a side of economics. Who amI to provide any value to a movement? In contrast to the Greeks, they turned Medea into an object of cult worship, identifying her with the Etruscan sun god Cavatha.The Aristonothos Krater in the Capitoline Museum Medea's magical art turned out to be familiar to the Etruscans, who were well known all throughout the Mediterranean for divination and being experts of magic. Images of Medea in Etruscan art confirmed from the Orientalist era to the Hellenization period represent an original, local interpretation of Medea's image. Some new versions of an interpretation expressed in relation to each of the artefacts on the basis of critical analysis of Etruscan archeological material, of classical texts and of previously undertaken modern research, are provided. The paper gives detailed analyses of Etruscan olpe and other artefacts on which Medea early appears, providing a solid precondition for substantive conclusions. It is noteworthy that the first image of Medea in the World Art is seen on Etruscan ceramics. The first among the Italic tribes to be introduced to the personage of Medea no doubt were the Etruscans, who were the first to establish intensive contacts with the Greeks from Euboea founding a colony in Cumae, Italy. It could be said with some precision, that in Antiquity the myth of the Argonauts and especially of Medea herself as a personage of this myth, has enjoyed popularity not only in Greece but also outside its territories.
