Palmyra and Islamic State have been in the news a lot recently. Which can be testing for one's cultural awareness. But thanks to

| Zippy looks for the procession of women at the Temple of Bel but discovers that they, along with the entire temple, have been blown up. |
Zippy reports that there is really not much you need to know about Palmyra as most of the cultural bits are not there anymore.
