Extractions: Around 12,000 years ago, there was a great civilisation of people who lived peacefully, luxuriously, and amongst no crime. A place of magnificent mountain ranges, lush plains, and beautiful natural gardens. Then one day, without any warning, the earth's natural forces swallowed the entire civilisation. The place that was engulfed was none other than 'Atlantis'. Central to the latest theory is the fact that the Mediterranean basin suffered a catastrophic flood with the destruction of the Gibraltar "dam" that once closed the Mediterranean Sea from the Atlantic. This substantiates Plato's claim that an epochal flood "swallowed up" the island of Atlantis, leaving only the uninhabited mountainous regions above water, and supports the biblical story of the flood. Sarmast believes that it will not be difficult to launch an underwater expedition and that the rewards will be great. "It's only a mile down in warm, calm waters," he said. "Compare that with the Titanic which is two miles down in freezing, treacherous waters. That was explored fully 20 years ago."

Extractions: ING Home Page Public Information La Palma info History Plato's Timaeus and Critias This extract from the work of Plato (circa 427 - 347 BC) is the first appearance in classical literature of the Atlantis myth. It is supposed to be part of a story told by Plato's great grandfather (Critias), who heard it from his great-grandfather (Dropides), who heard it from an Athenian traveller (Solon). The narrator is an Egyptian priest talking to Solon. It is supposed to describe a historical war between the ancient Athenians and the legendary Atlantis. Translation by Sir Desmond Lee, first published 1965, Penguin Classics. Although Plato describes Atlantis as an island in the Atlantic Ocean, and some Canarian writers have associated Atlantis with the Canaries, it is now generally believed that the Atlantis myth is a memory of Minoan Crete, a civilisation which was overwhelmed by the volcanic explosion of the Mediterranean island of Santorini in the fifteenth century BC.

The basic historical distinction between the two areas is that Egypt had a more or less continuous "national" history from the earliest Pharoahs until the rise of Islam, while Iraq, Syria and Anatolia, being much more geographically exposed, were homes to succeeding and not entirely continuous cultures - Sumeria, Akkad, Babylon, Assyria, Persia, Seleucia, to name only a few. Despite the immense time covered, research into homosexuality seems to have only just begun for these areas, and this is a section of this page that will be developed as more information becomes available. So far much of the discussion is based on Biblical texts, and on the assumption that the hostility of the Hebrew Bible to homosexual practice reflects homosexual activities associated with the surrounding religions.

Extractions: by Jane Austen How are historians to remedy the silence about women in many traditional accounts of history? This question has received a number of distinct answers. The first solution was to locate the great women of the past, following the lead of much popular historiography that focuses on "great men". The problem here is that just as the "great men" approach to history sidelines and ignores the lives of the mass of people, focusing on great women merely replicates the exclusionary historical approaches of the past. The next solution was to examine and expose the history of oppression of women. This approach had the merit of addressing the life histories of the mass of women, but, since it has proved to be possible to find some degree of oppression everywhere, it tended to make women merely subjects of forces that they could not control. On the other hand, historians' focus on oppression revealed that investigating the

Fresco, Vatican, Stanza della Signurata, the Pope's Private Library We now move forward in time about 150 years, still staying in Greece, from Pythagoras to Plato, himself a Pythagorean. In our last unit we studied some polygons, and I said that one of these, the triangle, was thought by Plato to be the building block of the universe. He presented that idea and others about creation, such as the universe being created to resemble a geometric progression, in one of his books, the Timaeus In the Timaeus , we'll see how Plato describes how triangles make up five solids, now called the Platonic Solids , and how these solids make up the four elements and heaven. We'll look at regular polyhedra in general, and see why only five are possible.

Extractions: Home Back Up Next P Pacioli, Luca (Borgo San Sepolcro circa 1445-Rome circa 1510), Italian mathematician and treatise-writer. He went to Venice in 1464 and after 1470 entered the Franciscan order and teached math in various Italian cities. He is famous for his work Summa de arithmetica, geometria, proportioni et proportionalita' (1494) which was the first published treatise about arithmetics and algebra: here he assumed all the contemporanean knowledge without any particular contribute from his part. In the other work De divina proportione published in Venice in 1509 was created partly thanks to participation of the greatest artists and architects of his time like L.B.Alberti, Piero della Francesca and Leonardo da Vinci (the latter was an author of one part of illustration figures. Here Pacioli wanted to give the basis of architecture and structure of human body explained in the language of geometry.

That man, too, is admirable who follows one who speaks well. He who cannot see the truth for himself, nor, hearing it from others, store it away in his mind, that man is utterly useless" ( the Works and Days, 293 - 297, translation by Lattimore).
