The earliest-known written appearance of the word "freedom"
(amagi), or "liberty" is in a clay cuneiform document written about
2300 B.C. in Lagash.

Rigor Mortis
The stiff is poised theatrically at the scene of the crime, hand
extended to heaven, eyes wide open in unspeakable terror. This is the
onset of rigor mortis. Ten hours after death, as the muscles' energy
stores - adenosine triphosphate (ATP) - are depleted, the small
muscles of the body and muscles that were most vigorously exercised
prior to death stiffen. In most cadavers, rigor mortis progresses from
the upper parts of the body downward (Nysten law). Three to four days
after the event the body's muscles begin to decompose. Some studies
suggest that rigor mortis progresses faster in red muscles and in
higher room temperatures.
Rigor mortis implies that the natural state of muscles is rigid and
contracted. Muscles invest energy in ... relaxing!
