I can’t help but wonder if this was posted by someone who didn’t care about history, and just wanted to compliment a woman they thought was remarkably beautiful.

Oh well. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, which means I’m wrong A LOT. Thanks for adding context!

That looks like AI anyway. Look how her shirt in the right pic falls weird.

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Or the fact that, while in the exact same lpcation, even on the same chair, she is wearing an entirely different outift, top and bottom

[–] shishka_b0b@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

Pretty sure she just works there. Looks like she's the hostess

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I don't think she is. I've been seeing her skits for a while. There's just lots of artifacts on that screenshot

I had to go to TikTok for this. I hope it's appreciated lol

Or maybe they're not commenting on her appearance at all and saying she owns a marina with 1,000 ships.

Some greeks supposedly were blond. They used the term xanthos, a term meaning golden, yellow, or light brown/auburn hair.

The greeks of today aren't necessarily representative of what the greeks back then looked like.

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 54 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Yes, but when the ancient Greek describe "blonde" they aren't referring to the same colors we associate blonde with. Alexander the Great's hair was said to be xanthos.... Contemporary depictions of him are with light brown or chestnut colored hair.

The greeks of today aren't necessarily representative of what the greeks back then looked like.

Yes, because a lot of Greek people have some Slavic lineage in their family history and are lighter skinned than ancient Greek would have been.

Yeah, I think a lot of people underestimate how blonde some Scandinavians are. I had that realization when my school went to France, and I realized that almost every single one of my classmates was "blonde" by the French definition, while I had previously thought that only a couple were blonde with the rest being auburn, light brown or chestnut. The "straw" colored hair that gets white in the summer is kinda rare in teens and adults, even among Scandinavians.

They'd be mad if a movie about Shaka and the Zulus had any black actors in it.

[–] Goodlucksil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

They wouldn't watch it

These are probably the same morons who think Jesus was fair-skinned with blue eyes.

Well do remember that the Greeks of today would look almost nothing like the Greeks of the Bronze Age. Numerous migration waves and foreign conquerors have come in those intervening 3,000 years.

[–] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 11 points 1 month ago

Nefrititi lived 3000 years ago and based on her bust wouldn't look out of place in most Mediterranean countries today, there's no reason to think contemporaneous Greeks would look any less Mediterranean.

That's not really true, especially in southern Greece. DNA studies have shown the modern Greek people share around 90% of their ancestry with ancient Minoans and Myceenans. In the South, especially on islands like Crete they're virtually the same. In the North there is some admixture mostly with Slavic and Balkans, and some traces from the Ottoman empire.

Relatively short term occupations or small migrations tend to change an ethnic groups DNA less than you would think. After 4 generations you would end up with the same scenario of seeing the whitest person you have ever seen claiming they're 1/16th Cherokee.

Just say that you'd march to troy for her. Its fine

Troy, Michigan

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 month ago

D...do they think that's what a Woman from Post Bronze age collapse Sparta would look like?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

It's mental that people think Greeks were blonde haired with blue eyes, while Hispanics (and up until recently Italians and the Irish) didn't even qualify as white.

Her hair isn't straight it has a wave to it.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Is that AI or real person I'm just confused by why there's two pictures that are obviously taken in the same place but she's wearing different outfits.

[–] FavouriteShapes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

It's a real person on two different days.

Why they chose two pictures? No fucking idea.

First one is like the stupid promo tiktok for the business/for her own tiktok, second one must be an Instagram post or maybe someone met her and went "you're the lady from tiktok!! Can I get a picture?"

She's not Greek, she's from New York. Seems she went slightly viral in 2023. Personally haven't heard of her before.
