.:: Sidera Visus ::. | El Rincón de Libros de Ciencia Ficción Aegean Bronze Age Mycenaean society appears to have been divided into two groups of free men: the king's entourage, who conducted administrative duties at the palace; and the people (da-mo, later Greek demos) – craftsmen, farmers and others – who lived at commune level. The people were watched over by royal agents and were obliged to perform duties for and pay taxes to the palace. On a lower rung of the social ladder were found the slaves. The one who were essentially important were the people who traded abroad and the people who fought, as well as the men who led them. The territory of the Mycenaean kingdoms of Pylos and Knossos that we know more about thanks to the relative abundance of records, was divided into two parts: the palace lands and the communal lands.

De Nîmes vers ailleurs | Expériences (en cours) de cartographie culturelle en bibliothèque Pomponius Mela Reconstruction of Pomponius Mela's world map by Konrad Miller (1898). Pomponius Mela's description of Europe (F. Nansen, 1911). Pomponius Mela, who wrote around AD 43, was the earliest Roman geographer. He was born in Tingentera (now Algeciras) and died c. His short work (De situ orbis libri III.) occupies less than one hundred pages of ordinary print. Biography[edit] Little is known of the author except his name and birthplace—the small town of Tingentera or Cingentera in southern Spain, on Algeciras Bay (Mela ii. 6, § 96; but the text is here corrupt). Geographical knowledge[edit] The general views of the De situ orbis mainly agree with those current among Greek writers from Eratosthenes to Strabo; the latter was probably unknown to Mela. The shores of Codanus sinus (southwestern Baltic Sea) in red with its many islands in green. Descriptive method[edit] Editions[edit] References[edit] Jump up ^ Tegg, Thomas (1824).

Ancient Greece on Tripline The Battle of Marathon is one of the most famous battles in history. It was a triumphal victory for the Greeks over the Persians, which boosted Greek confidence and without which Europe may never have enjoyed the classical culture which has so influenced western civilisation. After Marathon the Persians attacked Greece again ten years later in 480 BC, when they won a victory at Thermopylae and then sacked Athens, but were themselves finally defeated by the Greeks at Salamis and Plataea. These were the Persian Wars recorded by Herodotus, the 'Father of History'. The victory at Marathon was marked on the battlefield by a burial tumulus for the 192 Greek hoplites who died, and this is still on the same site today, along with a site museum.
