"Be Cheerful, Enjoy Your Life," Unknown Artist, 3rd Century BCE.
This cheerful skeleton was unearthed in 2016 in the Greek/Roman city of Antiocheia, in modern-day Turkey. While the lettering is commonly translated to mean, "Be cheerful; enjoy your life," some sources claim it actually says, "You get the pleasure of the food you eat hastily with death."
Happy Halloween, friends!
