I use my Real name as nickname, Posy means "God will increase", the same as Posette, my surname. My middle name, Rosabella is an italian name which can be translated as "beautiful rose" or, better, "Rosebud".

I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. [i:a714c00a19]Percy Bysshe Shelley[/i:a714c00a19] Ozymandias came from this poem. It's a early 1800th century miss-translation of the name Pharaoh Ramses II. I have always liked the poetic and grand nature of the name. It actually sounds like an ancient and powerful king. I have been a Ancient Egypt nut ever since I could read as a boy and have visited there a couple of times and spent a few months in Egypt over the years. I just love the romance of Dynastic Egypt. Jones... well that's my name. Not many of us Jones's around now-a-days, you know <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" /> Ozymandias Jones has become my pen name when I'm writing on the net. Many of my sotries are of an Adult nature, or contain adult themes and I use the Ozy pen name to set them apart from the more main stream stuff. So there you go...

Well, I am DarkAngel and depending on whom you shall speak to is whether you get I am the angel of mercy, giving or death....and because I love angelic images, fairy images and collect angels. I have been called each one, and the last one is the one they refer to when they end up in the hospital...they all say don't let her come visit me cause everytime she visits someone they usually end up dying. I guess they don't factor in the idea that the person was gravely sick to begin with and it was a coincidence that I was the one they decided to leave after visiting...and I don't mean right away...LOL The other reason is because my signature color is black. Hence DarkAngel.. I am rally not a bad person, just seems to be that way...I bluff well <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/nicetongue.gif" alt="" />

My username came to me one day while using the "Oriental Institute of Chicago's" website. I have a passion for ancient history, especially those cultures that arose in the fertile cresent of the Middle East, those of Mesopotamia and Egypt. Archeologists have been unable to dig in ancient Sumer and AKKad in the last 15 years or so and scholars have had a chance to catch up with all the material that has accumulated. I was browsing this material in the virtual museum at the Oriental Institue when I decided to use a Sumerian name as my username. All the names of the first cities of civilization were taken, of course, as were many of the more notable names of people from myth or legend. So I went back about 5000 years and tried the name of one of the earliest recorded rulers of the city of Kish. To my current knowledge the only thing known about him is that he is the first ruler of the all the lands to attach the city name to his own name of Melam. Melamkishi(k), hence Melamkish.

Perhaps there are a few exceptions. Blimey. When did you go back about 5000 years and tried the name of one of the earliest recorded rulers of the city of Kish?
