Herodotus Book 2
Herodotus's account of Egyptian life after the invasion by the Persians.
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/GreekScience/hdtbk2.html

Extractions: [2] Cambyses was the son of this woman and of Cyrus. He considered the Ionians and Aeolians slaves inherited from his father, and prepared an expedition against Egypt, taking with him some of these Greek subjects besides others whom he ruled. [1] Now before Psammetichus became king of Egypt, the Egyptians believed that they were the oldest people on earth. But ever since Psammetichus became king and wished to find out which people were the oldest, they have believed that the Phrygians were older than they, and they than everybody else. [2] Psammetichus, when he was in no way able to learn by inquiry which people had first come into being, devised a plan by which he took two newborn children of the common people and gave them to a shepherd to bring up among his flocks. He gave instructions that no one was to speak a word in their hearing; they were to stay by themselves in a lonely hut, and in due time the shepherd was to bring goats and give the children their milk and do everything else necessary. [3] Psammetichus did this, and gave these instructions, because he wanted to hear what speech would first come from the children, when they were past the age of indistinct babbling. And he had his wish; for one day, when the shepherd had done as he was told for two years, both children ran to him stretching out their hands and calling "Bekos!" as he opened the door and entered.

http://edweb.sdsu.edu/people/bdodge/scaffold/GG/perseus.html

Extractions: Once there was a king named Acrisius, he had a beautiful daughter named Danae . The oracle of Apollo told Acrisius that Danae's son would one day kill him. Acrisius could not let that happen, so he locked Danae in a bronze tower so that she would never marry or have children. The tower had no doors, but it had one very small window. Danae was very sad, but one day a bright shower of gold came through the small window. A man appeared, he had a thunderbolt in his hand and Danae knew he was a god, but she didn't know which. The man said, "Yes, I am a god and I wish to make you my wife. I can make this dark prison a wonderful sunny land with many flowers " All happened as he said, the horrible prison became fields almost as wonderful as the Elysian Fields themselves, but one day Acrisius saw light coming out of the small window. He told his men to tear down one of the walls. He walked into the tower and saw Danae with a baby on her lap, smiling she said, "I have named him Perseus." Acrisius was furious, he shut Danae and baby Perseus up in a large chest and cast them out to sea. Somehow they got safely to the island of Seriphos where Polydectes was king. The kings brother who was a fisherman, caught them in his net and pulled them to shore, his name was Dictys. Perseus grew up to become a strong young man. Polydectes heard about Danae and wanted her to marry him, but she rejected him. Polydectes would have married Danae by force if Perseus wasn't there to protect her.

Extractions: Latin 2201 Perseus ... Chapter 11 Haec narrantur a poetis de Perseo. Perseus filius erat Iovis, maximi deorum. Avus eius Acrisius appellabatur. Acrisius volebat Perseum, nepotem suum, necare; nam propter oraculum puerum timebat. Comprehendit igitur Perseum, adhuc infantem, et cum matre in arcâ ligneâ inclusit. Tum arcam ipsam in mare coniecit. Danaë, Persei mater, magno- pere territa est; tempestas enim magna mare turbabat. Per- seus autem in sinû matris dormiebat. Iuppiter tamen haec omnia vidit, et filium suum servare constituit. Fecit igitur mare tranquillum, et arcam ad insulam Seriphum perduxit. Huius insulae Polydectes tum rex erat. Postquam arca ad litus appulsa est, Danae in harenâ quietem capiebat. Post breve tempus a piscatore quodam reperta est, et ad domum regis Polydectis adducta est. Ille matrem et puerum benigne excepit, et sedem tutam in finibus suis dedit. Danae hoc donum libenter accepit, et pro tanto beneficio regi gratias egit.

(44) Macedon, Perseus
confronted perseus at Pydna in Macedonia, where the Macedonian army was perseus eventually surrendered to the Romans and died in captivity in Rome.
http://www.lawrence.edu/dept/art/buerger/catalogue/044.html

Extractions: Perseus, the last Macedonian king, succeeded his father, Philip V, in 179 B.C. From the beginning he was careful in securing allies against his greatest threat, Eumenes II of Pergamon. He renewed a treaty with Rome, which treated him as an ally until Eumenes convinced Rome to declare war against Perseus in 171 B.C. The conflict dragged on for three years, until the Roman commander, Aemilius Paullus, confronted Perseus at Pydna in Macedonia, where the Macedonian army was slaughtered. Perseus eventually surrendered to the Romans and died in captivity in Rome. Macedonia was divided into four powerless republics, and the kingdom of Alexander the Great ceased to exist. The portrait on the obverse is presumably realistic, since it includes distinctive features such as the sloping forehead, prominent nose, and short, wispy beard, and has few of the idealizing qualities common to Hellenistic coin portraits inspired by those of Alexander the Great. The eagle on the thunderbolt and the oak wreath of the reverse refer to Zeus, a patron deity of Macedonian royalty since Alexander.

The Stories Of The Constellations - Perseus
perseus this constellation is the cornerstone of probably the most intriguing and Greece the legend of perseus encompasses seven separate star groups
http://www.ufrsd.net/staffwww/stefanl/myths/perseus.htm

Extractions: The Legend of Perseus Perseus : this constellation is the cornerstone of probably the most intriguing and involved legends within classical Greek mythology. The bright, variable star Algol has often been identified as an evil star owing in part to its obvious changes in brightness every three days. Its name is derived from the Arabic Ras al-Ghul, the root of our word ghoul and translated as Head of the Devil. Strangely enough, later Christian representations of the constellation identified the star as the Bible as held by the apostle Paul. Mesopotamia : associated with the violent, uncouth god Amurru or Martu. He is often described as a storm, one who digs up truffles in the foothills, eats raw flesh and has no permanent home. The nomadic people with which this god can be associated before he was absorbed into the mythologies of the ancient Mesopotamians are the Amorites described in the Bible.

Extractions: In this paper, we describe the new document delivery and knowledge management tools in the Perseus Digital Library Digital libraries can be an extremely effective method of extending the services of a traditional library by enabling activities such as access to materials outside the physical confines of the library The Perseus digital library is a heterogeneous collection of texts and images pertaining to the Archaic and Classical Greek world, late Republican and early Imperial Rome, the English Renaissance, and 19th Century London. The texts are integrated with morphological analysis tools, student and advanced lexica, and sophisticated searching tools that allow users to find all of the inflected instantiations of a particular lexical form. The current corpus of Greek texts contains approximately four million words by thirty-three different authors. Most of the texts were written in the fifth and fourth centuries B.C.E., with some written as late as the second century C.E. The corpus of Latin texts contains approximately one million five hundred thousand words mostly written by authors from the republican and early imperial periods. The digital library also contains more than 30,000 images, 1000 maps, and a comprehensive catalog of sculpture. Collections of English language literature from the Renaissance and the 19th century will be added in the fall of 2000.

Since I first learned about it, when it was still a plan more than a project, I have been impressed by its audacious scope. I have also been very impressed by the far-sightedness of the project directors as they have made certain that the data they store - not necessarily the data they put out on the commercial CDs but the underlying data stored on disc at project headquarters - have been stored in the most sophisticated and neutral formats possible. They have, for instance, used SGML for text and complex databases for other information. They are also storing mapping information in GIS format. On the other hand, I have found myself unimpressed with the CDs produced, both the original one in 1992 and the most recent version, Perseus 2.0
