Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 Do you think the Italian Greyhound comes from Ancient Egypt? You’re mistaken! Science and history tell a very different story — far more fascinating and far more recent. Let’s open the thread. #dogs #italiangreyhound #history #genetics #book #ancientdna
Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 In 1914, in Corropoli (Teramo), archaeologists uncovered a burial unlike any other. A Neolithic woman and her dog, resting together for 7,000 years. Not a myth — a bond written in bone. #dogs #sighthounds #ancientDna #stem #booksky
Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 The Dog as a Global Psychopomp Across almost every continent, ancient cultures independently linked the #dog to the #afterlife. This is not a local myth — it’s a recurring archetype revealed by #historiography, #iconography, and #zooarchaeology. #stem #ancientdna #bookstagram

Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 Before the Inca, dogs were already in South America.The oldest remains? The Valdivia culture in Ecuador: 5,000 years ago. But how did dogs get there, and what did they represent? A thread that rewrites the history of our oldest companion. #dogs #stem #AncientHistory #ancientdna
Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 When we see a #Poodle, we think of a salon / companion #dog. But its story begins in the water. For centuries, in Europe its ancestors were #dogs used to hunt and retrieve waterfowl. The Poodle was shaped by mud, marshes, and hard work. #ancientdna #history #genetics Images ai generated

Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 On the island of Crete, ancient hounds (Kritikos Lagonikos) still roam—witnesses to myth: Minos, the Minotaur, Ariadne, Perseus, Icarus and Daedalus. Timeless dogs, bearers of enduring beauty. #dogs #AncientDogs #Crete #Mythology #History #ancientdna
Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 People say mixed‑breed dogs live longer than purebreds. Global data shows a different picture: over 70% of the world’s dogs are free‑roaming, no breed and their lifespan is only 1–4 years. Longevity depends on living conditions, not on “breed vs. mix. #dogs #ancientdna #genetics #history

Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 The world's oldest dog has no pedigree. There is a paradox hardly anyone addresses: "breed" is a recent concept, and the mixed-breed dog—which isn't a breed at all—is perhaps the closest thing to the original #dog. #ancientdna #newbook #genetics #ancienthistory #stem

Giovanni Padrone 🇺🇦 The Molossus of Epirus — Myth vs Reality The Molossus of Epirus is one of the most cited dogs in ancient literature — yet also one of the most misunderstood. Between myth, modern marketing, and misread sources, its real identity has been blurred. #dog #ancientDna #history #Greece #lgds #stem
