(Let alone ’evolve’ from single cells!) Then, according to their theory, dinosaurs became extinct about 65 million years ago. And man did not evolve until about 4 million years ago. If this is true, no man could ever have seen a live dinosaur. However, some new discoveries indicate that man and dinosaurs may have lived together in the not too distant past.

Here is some evidence that dinosaurs haven’t been extinct for 70 million years: Some Aborigines have reported seeing a dinosaur like creature. From their description it could be a Struthiomimus.

Herodotus, being one of the foremost biographer in antiquity who lived in Greece at the time when the Macedonian king Alexander I was in power, is said to have visited the Macedonian Kingdom and supposedly, profited from this excursion, wrote several short passages about the Macedonians. What did he say, and to what extent can these passages be taken as evidence for the alleged 'greekness' of the ancient Macedonians, will be briefly presented for your adjudication. Herodotus describes the episode with the Persian envoys, who apparently visited Macedon when Alexander I's father Amyntas was in power, and how Alexander I succeeded in 'taking care of the Persians' by murdering all of them and removing their luggage and carriages. When the Persians attempted to trace the lost envoys, Alexander I cleverly succeeded in manipulating the Persians by giving his own sister Gygaea as a wife to the Persian commander Bubares.

2000 Herodotus Awards For those who don’t know, The Herodotus award is an award presented by The Historical Mystery Appreciation Society . You may be asking yourselves why I named it The Herodotus which, to be perfectly honest, takes a while to get to roll easily off the tongue. I’ll tell you. Briefly, Herodotus was born in Turkey in the fifth century BC. He is best known as the author of the first great narrative history produced in the ancient world, The History of the Greco-Persian Wars . Herodotus’ need to explain the context in which events took place was fulfilled by a series of digressions from the main narrative. The Encyclopedia Britannica says: One important and, indeed, remarkable feature of Herodotus’ History is his love of and gift for narrating history in the storyteller’s manner.... [H]e inserts not only amusing short stories but also dialogue and even speeches by the leading historical figures into his narratives.... [He] was a great traveler with an eye for detail, a good geographer, a man with indefatigable interest in the customs and past history of his fellowmen, and a man of the widest tolerance.... I can't think of a better description of the best historical mystery writers!

Pershing Avenue Stockton, CA 95207 Email: Email this page Print this page Comment on this page Herodotus and the Bible by Wayne Jackson Christian Courier: Archives Wednesday, June 21, 2000 This article shows how the histories of Herodotus confirm the reliability of the Bible. Herodotus was a Greek historian of the 5th century B.C. It is believed that he lived approximately 484-425 B.C. For a number of years he traveled throughout the Persian empire, Egypt, and Scythia observing the culture of these ancient peoples. In his later life, Herodotus lived in Athens, finally settling in Italy where he spent the remainder of his days refining his masterpiece, The Persian Wars. In his effort to accomplish this feat, he went further and sought to give, as an introduction to the story, the whole history of the antique world as it was then known. This material occupies the first six of his nine books. He is generally viewed as the first writer to so unify the record of facts as to raise historical narrative to the level of literature. It should be noted, however, that his history was written in an age that lacked an abundance of solid factual documentation; his work is grounded, therefore, largely in oral tradition.

Herodotus, c.485-425 B.C. The Greek historian Herodotus was born at Halicarnarssus, a Greek colony on the coast of Asia Minor around 485 B.C. When the colonies were freed from the Persian yoke, he left his home and traveled in Asia Minor, the Aegean islands, Greece, Macdedonia, Thrace, the coasts of the Black Sea, Persia, Tyre, Egypt, and Cyrene. In 443 B.C., the colony of Thurii was founded by Athens on the Tarentine Gulf, and Herodotus joined it. From Thurii he visited Sicily and Lower Italy. On his travels he collected historical, geographical, ethnological and archeological material for his History which was designed to record not only the wars but the causes of the wars between Greece and the barbarians. Herodotus admired Athenian democracy. Though he praised Persian bravery, he eulogized Athens and its triumph over autocratic Persian imperialism. He was not as accurate in his reporting of military facts, something which characterized his successor, Thucydides. Nor did Herodotus free himself completely from a belief that the gods still intervened in human affairs. The fame of Herodotus has endured as the first constructive artist in the field of historical scholarship, as the author of the earliest comprehensive historical work, and as the first writer to imply that the task of the historian is to reconstruct the whole past life of man.

My Friend Herodotus by Candace Cedar The Histories , I gained more respect for the other civilizations. I remember a particular speech about the Egyptians and their customs. Although Herodotus did describe them as different than Greeks, he presented them as a highly esteemed people. The Histories .) Herodotus went on to describe how the women worked and the men were priests; how they wrote from right to left, which is completely backwards. Opposite to the customs of the Greeks, they ate outside and went to the bathroom inside. They even lived with their animals. How outrageous! Herodotus compared these actions to those of the rest of the known world, most importantly the Greeks. I began to think that the Egyptians were a strange inferior people, but Herodotus hadn’t finished speaking. The Histories Strange as It Seems and Believe It or Not ." He wanted to make the learning of other cultures interesting. He talked of how the countries were different without making the Egyptians appear in the center ring of a circus show. Some may forget that both Jerry Springer’s talk show and the Discovery channel explore the "oddities" of the world. Redfield attempted to place Herodotus alongside Springer, exposing the oddities of humanity to attract a crowd. However, after seeing him speak and reading his book, I realized that he was an explorer, documenting the great wonders of the world hidden from my immediate view.

He was among the first to approach the reporting of history in a logical and skeptical way; he tried to separate true events from myth and made a point of identifying and commenting on his sources. It didn't hurt that he was a colorful writer and commentator; his most famous work, The Histories, remains a widely-read account of the Persian invasion of ancient Greece. (It's the main source for details on the famous battles at Marathon and Thermopylae.) Ironically, the details of Herodotus' own life are unclear. He is believed to have been born at Halicarnassus, on the Aegean Sea in Asia Minor, and to have travelled widely, collecting and recording stories as he went.

HERODOTUS HERODOTUS The travels of Herodotus seem to have been chiefly accomplished between his twentieth and his thirty-seventh year (464447 B.C.).1 It was probably in his early manhood that as a Persian subject he visited Susa and Babylon, taking advantage of the Persian system of posts which he describes in his fifth book.

The journey to Susa and Babylon is put b) C. F. Lehmann c. 450 B.C., and by H. Stein before 450, in Egypt must, on the other hand, have been subsequent to 460 B.C., since he saw the skulls of the Persians slain by Inarus in that year. Skulls are rarely visible on a battlefield for more than two or three seasons after the fight, and we may therefore presume thatit was during the reign of mn.arus (46o454 B.C.) ,2 when the Athenians bad great authority in Egypt, that he visited the country~ making himself known as a learned Greek, and therefore receiving favor and attention on the part of the Egyptians, who were so much beholden to his countrymen (see ATHENS, CIM0N, PERICLES). On his return from Egypt, as he proceeded along the Syrian shore, he seems to have landed at Tyre, and from thence to have gone to Thasos. His Scythian travels are thought to have taken place prior to 450 B.C. Athens was at this time the centre of intellectual life, and could boast an almost unique galaxy of talentPericles, Thucydides the son of Melesias, Aspasia, Antiphon, the musician Damon, Pheidias, Protagoras, Zeno, Cratinus, Crates, Euripides and Sophocles.

120. Phoenix Herodotus They have also another sacred bird called the phoenix which I myself have never seen, except in pictures. Indeed it is a great rarity, http://www.eaudrey.com/myth/phoenix.htm

Dave's Mythical Creatures and Places Search Site Alphabetical Index E-mail Dave Phoenix Description The size of an eagle, with gold plumage around the neck, a purple body, and an azure tail. The throat has a crest, and the head has a tuft of feathers. (according to Pliny) Features The main feature of the phoenix is that it is reborn through fire: when it gets old it will make a nest (sometimes of myrrh) and set it on fire. The phoenix will be consumed in the flames, but will be reborn out of the ashes. There is only one Phoenix at a time; it lives for many years (accounts vary from 500, 540, 1000 or 1460 years.) No person has ever seen this bird eat. This legend was very common among the Egyptians, the Greek, oriental cultures, and during medieval times. Symbolizes Might represent the sun, which dies every night and is reborn the next morning. Among classical writers, it may represent those existing in paradise, enjoying eternal youth. Among Christians, it can represent rebirth after death. Also called Fung or Feng-Huang- (Chinese version) In this version, the bird is sent to earth to perform extraordinary works and to help the development of man. It appears in different stages of the world's progress, and then returns to heaven.
