EP 168: Armenia- Dyjhicon the Coward Hero

#armenia #folklore In this tale, Dyjhicon is a whiner. He doesn't want to do any chores, he is afraid of the rats, and all he can do is criticize his wife. So he leaves the house and wanders until he finds some flies. He kills seven with his hand and legend is born. Source: The Golden Maiden, by A. G.

Join former English majors Amy and Chantelle as they revisit the good, the bad, and the spectacularly ridiculous literary works from their undergrad. Listener Shoutout: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia’s sprawling capital in the highlands bordering the Great Rift Valley, is the country’s commercial and cultural hub. Its National Museum exhibits Ethiopian art, traditional crafts and prehistoric fossils, including replicas of the famous early hominid, "Lucy." The burial place of the 20th-century emperor Haile Selassie, copper-domed Holy Trinity Cathedral, is a neo-baroque architectural landmark. - Via google "File:Akhtamar Island on Lake Van with the Armenian Cathedral of the Holy Cross.jpg" by gozturk is licensed under CC BY 3.0.
