TopicPhoto of a woman condemned to die in a crate in a remote desert (1913).

This photo was taken in July 1913 by French photographer Albert Kahn. Albert Kahn was a millionaire banker who pioneered color photography using the process invented by the Lumire brothers. During his trip through exotic countries, Albert Kahn visited Mongolia where he took this picture of a woman who was condemned to slow and painful starvation by being deposited in a remote desert inside a wooden crate that was to become her tomb. Initially the bowls on the ground had water in it, though was not intentionally refilled, and the person inside was allowed to beg for food which often just prolonged their suffering as they generally didnt get enough food for the passersby. The photographer had to leave her in the box because it would be against a prime directive of anthropologists to intervene in another cultures law and order system. The photo was first published in the 1922 issue of National Geographic under the caption Mongolian prisoner in a box. It was the publishers who made the claim that the woman was condemned to die of starvation as a punishment for adultery. Since then, many people expressed doubts over the story, although the authenticity of the photo is undisputed.

Immurement (from Latin im- in and mrus wall; literally walling in) is a form of imprisonment, usually for life, in which a person is placed within an enclosed space with no exits. This includes instances where people have been enclosed in extremely tight confinement, such as within a coffin. When used as a means of execution, the prisoner is simply left to die from starvation or dehydration. Immurement was practiced in Mongolia as recently as the early 20th century. It is not necessarily clear that all thus immured were meant to die of starvation, though. In a newspaper report from 1914, it is written: ..the prisons and dungeons of the Far Eastern country contain a number of refined Chinese shut up for life in heavy iron-bound coffins, which do not permit them to sit upright or lie down. These prisoners see daylight for only a few minutes daily when the food is thrown into their coffins through a small hole.

Kind of sad, especially if her crime was something as relatively minor as adultery.
Though I wonder if her extramarital partner was punished if that was the case?

Yes. Yes it's pointless because most illegal immigrants actually just outstay their visas after coming in legally. There are also massive portions of the wilderness that are near impossible to build over.


There are no MS-13 gang members overstaying a visa. Them and people like them are the primary target of the The Wall.

He didn't say otherwise, and gang members are not the majority of illegal immigrants.

that's a small minority. the vast majority of the people who hate her character is not because she is black but that her costume sucks and her skin is not orange enough. the show has shitty special effects compared to Guardians of the Galaxy

Gamorra is also black. but she's fine because they did a good job on her skin

Lol if the role was played by a cute white actress I doubt her being orange enough would even come up as a criticism with any real frequency


I think it would. Her being orange is kinda important

Even so, a good majority of the people slinging those racist comments would more than likely not have anywhere near such a problem if it was a White actress.
