The chariot that bears the human soul!

The chariot that bears the human soul!

There is no Frigate like a Book
To take us Lands away
Nor any Coursers like a Page
Of prancing Poetry–
This Traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of Toll–
How frugal is the Chariot
That bears the Human Soul!

β€” Emily Dickinson

I never heard about this much older version of the story. Which do you like better?

Think Cinderella was born in a European fairytale? Think again.

Long before glass slippers and fairy godmothers, there was Rhodopis β€” a beautiful young slave in ancient Egypt.

As the story goes, recorded by the Greek geographer Strabo in the 1st century BC, Rhodopis was bathing when a falcon β€” symbol of the god Horus β€” snatched one of her golden sandals and dropped it in the lap of the Pharaoh.
Struck by its beauty and the mystery behind it, he launched a kingdom-wide search to find its owner.
When he finally met Rhodopis, he was captivated by her grace and nobility… and made her his queen.

Yes β€” this is considered the oldest known version of Cinderella.
It dates back to the Hellenistic period, blending Egyptian and Greek mythologies long before Disney gave it a glittering twist.

Back then it was a falcon, not a fairy. A golden sandal, not glass. A Pharaoh, not a prince.

Amazing how some stories live on β€” only their shoes change.
