The Pisces-Perseus Supercluster The Pisces-Perseus supercluster is one of the most prominent structures in the local extragalactic sky. We can examine this structure by looking at the two dimensional distributions of galaxies in the region of the supercluster. The top diagram shows the distribution on the plane of the sky of galaxies in a 90 by 30 degree slice across the supercluster. The main ridge of the supercluster is roughly outlined by straight lines. This is the same feature seen in the Aitoff equal area projection of the nearest 15,0000 galaxies. Only galaxies with measured redshifts are shown here. Note the clumpiness of the galaxies, particularly the continuous structure within the outlined region. Notice also the absence of galaxies in other portions of the map. Some of the empty regions to the extreme left (east) and at the top (north) are partly caused by obscuration within the Milky Way. However, most of the structure seen in this map is real. The lower diagram shows the distribution in redshift space of all of the galaxies contained within the area outlined in the top one. This representation does not give adequate comparison of nearby and distant structures (see below), but it is clear that the majority of galaxies seen in the enhanced region in the upper plot all lie at approximately the same redshift. The main ridge of the Pisces-Perseus supercluster can be traced over 90 degrees across the sky. It lies at a mean redshift of about 5500 km/s and is is best described as a linear "filament" with an axial ratio of at least 8:1, inclined by less than 12 degrees to the plane of the sky. The supercluster extends over 45 Mpc in length before it disappears into the Zone of Avoidance on the east.

The Symbiosis Between Content and Technology in the Perseus Digital Library By Gregory Crane, Brian Fuchs, Amy C. Smith and Clifford E. Wulfman - October 2000 The Perseus Digital Library [ ] already enjoys strong affinities with many projects being developed in Europe today. Mirror sites for Perseus have been maintained in Oxford and Berlin for several years, and we have worked extensively with the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, Berlin [ ] since 1998. Most recently, we have begun to collaborate with the Center for the Study of Ancient Documents and the Beazley Archive at Oxford University as well as with the team at Cambridge now writing a new intermediate Greek Lexicon. European collaborations are natural for us; while most of the technical research in digital libraries being done in the US is readily applicable to European efforts, the Perseus Digital Library Project is unusual in that, technology aside, its efforts to date have focused on a cultural heritage shared by the US and Europe alike. Given the magnitude of the task before us all, such US/European partnerships are essential, and we are eager to expand our ties to colleagues in Europe. We are therefore grateful for the opportunity to contribute to Cultivate Interactive Introduction ], we remain focussed on the back-end structures by which the data is organized. Systems, however elaborate, are ephemeral: they evolve and can be replaced much more easily than massive and expanding contents.

CELLINI, Benvenuto (b. 1500, Firenze, d. 1571, Firenze) Perseus Bronze Loggia dei Lanzi, Florence The sculpture shows Perseus, holding the head of the Medusa which he has cut off and from whose blood the winged horse Pegasus will be born. This masterpiece in bronze was sculpted between 1545 and 1554 for the Loggia dei Lanzi (an open-air gallery) and has stood there ever since. The sculpture can be considered as the reult of a direct competition with Donatello's earlier sculpture, Judith and Holophernes. The modelling of the reliefs in bronze on the marble base is so exquisitely done that it suggests the precision of the goldsmith rather than the sculptor's art.

The eclipses of Algol happen every 2 days, 20 hours and 49 minutes: in five hours Algol lowers to a third of its normal brightness, passing from the magnitude 2,1 to the magnitude 3,4; after other five hours it returns to the usual shine. The phenomenon is visible to the naked eye. Near Cassiopeia there is the Double Cluster, whose components are two different stellar clusters: NGC 869, more crowded and distant about 7500 light-years, and NGC 884, which is 7200 light-years away and is older, considering that it contains some red giants (that is stars in an advanced period of evolution).

131. The Greek City-states And The Religious Festival A brief examination of the religious dimension of the ancient Olympic games, from the perseus Project. http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/Olympics/rel.html

The Greek city-states and the religious festival One difference between the ancient and modern Olympic Games is that the ancient games were played within the context of a religious festival. The Games were held in honor of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods, and a sacrifice of 100 oxen was made to the god on the middle day of the festival. Athletes prayed to the gods for victory, and made gifts of animals, produce, or small cakes, in thanks for their successes. According to legend, the altar of Zeus stood on a spot struck by a thunderbolt, which had been hurled by the god from his throne high atop Mount Olympus, where the gods assembled. Some coins from Elis had a thunderbolt design on the reverse, in honor of this legend. Dewing 1860, silver stater, minted at Elis Reverse: Thunderbolt Photograph by Maria Daniels, courtesy of the Dewing Numismatic Foundation Over time, the Games flourished, and Olympia became a central site for the worship of Zeus. Individuals and communities donated buildings, statues, altars and other dedications to the god. The most spectacular sight at Olympia was the gold and ivory cult statue of Zeus enthroned, which was made by the sculptor Pheidias and placed inside the temple. The statue was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and stood over 42 feet high. A spiral staircase took visitors to an upper floor of the temple, for a better view of the statue.

133. Marriage And Funerals In Athens Jana Shopkorn's essay on ritual and ceremony in Ancient Greece. Includes links to numerous vase images. http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/classes/JSp.html

"Til Death Do Us Part: Marriage and Funeral Rites in Classical Athens Jana Shopkorn In the ancient Mediterranean world there was hardly room for choice: not only was marriage destiny, but so was death. The identity of the Classical Greek world is established through the traditional sacrifices and rituals that were practiced in these times of bliss and mourning. The sacred wedding and the dramatic funeral compliment each other in character and content, for the ceremonies are both interwoven with ritual meaning and overlapping rites. Evidence for these formalities, both literary and artistic, help to provide a complete account of Greek customs in order to form the general picture of the wedding, the funeral, the parallels, the writings, and the vase paintings. Every respectable woman in Athens became a wife if she could. There was no real alternative other than marriage. The bride and the groom prepared for the wedding by means of offerings, dedications, and sacrifices. All of these rites had a purificatory and propitiatory character. Marriage in Classical Athens is constituted by the acts of engue ekdosis and gamos Engue refers to the betrothal arranged by the kurioi , usually the fathers. It may also refer to the relationship between the

134. Dionysiac Mysteries And The Thesmophoria The Dionysiac Mysteries and the Thesmophoria both gave women in Greece an opportunity to escape, even just for a short time, from the domestic women's sphere. By Lynne Aftuck. http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/classes/LAp.html

Lynne Aftuck May 3, 1996 The Dionysiac Mysteries and the Thesmophoria In ancient Greece, religious festivals were an important social outlet for women. They gave women an opportunity to leave their households and enter the public sphere. Two festivals that were of particular importance to Greek women were the Mysteries of Dionysus and the Thesmophoria . Although the participants in both festivals were primarily women, that seems to be where the similarities end. The Mysteries were not conducive to women's proper role in society whereas the Thesmophoria seemed to be in the best interest of everyone in the polis. By looking at the ritualistic activities involved in the two festivals, it is easy to see why this was the prevailing opinion of men who lived in Greece during the days of these festivals. Religion was the major source of women's participation in public life. It has been said that festivals were probably the only legitimate reason that women had to leave their homes. The festivals gave the women an opportunity to obtain external support from other women with regard to personal problems and concerns. By attending religious festivals, women were also given an alternative to their normal lives in the home. The festivals provided them with respite from their domestic duties such as caring for children and weaving The Mysteries of Dionysus were important cult festivals for many women. This festival was in honor of
