According to the text of the Madrid manuscript of the “Synopsis historion,” a Byzantine chronicle written by John Skylitzes, “There were some Varangians dispersed in the Thrakesion theme for the winter. One of them coming across a woman of the region in the wilderness put the quality of her virtue to the test. When persuasion failed he resorted to violence, but she seized his Persian-type sword, struck him in the heart and promptly killed him. When the deed became known in the surrounding area, the Varangians held an assembly and crowned the woman, presenting her with all the possessions of her violator, whom they threw aside, unburied, according to the law concerning assassins.” In the image depicting these occurrences, the woman uses a spear to kill her attacker, and the other Varangian men approach her with armfuls of clothing.

My name is Riche Desilien. I'm 21 until March 8 says otherwise. I'm a creative person (just like everyone else). I call myself Mad Riche not because of finical wealth but because of mental wealth. I want to share knowledge with people and take in whatever knowledge they have to offer. I love the planet Earth and everything it has to offer but I have some trouble understanding the people living on it sometimes. I reblog/post things that are politically conscious, socially unacceptable, and sex & marijuana related. I find a limited amount of material things appealing. I'm an independent Creative Director. You'll learn more about me while following me I guess. I will too.
