  The Americas have had native groups living there for more than ten thousand years, but Columbus was surely not their first visitors. Uncharted covers a range of cultures who seemingly have been visiting the Americas since long before Columbus. Evidence is explored of potential Roman and Phoenician shipwrecks off the coast of South America through to Celtic and Norse exploration of Northern America. Put simply, the history of the discovery of the North America is all wrong. How did the Knights Templar influence the discovery of the new world? What do the Sinclair family, Rosslyn chapel, and two venetian brothers have to do with the discovery of a new continent? How did the Vikings navigate their way? With source materials dating back through millennia, including very recent finds, this book will induce you to thought about a side of history still so readily dismissed by some. 
   
   
    
  Uncharted tackles the evidence and stories of visiting distant lands that abound from many cultures, such the Egyptian, Greeks, Celts, Vikings, as well as various people from Asia; and one large Chinese group likely settled in the Americas in 100 BC, which current DNA evidence supports. Columbus should be remembered, but remembered for the conquering tyrant he was. These other groups did not come to conquer, but to trade, explore, and escape.

  Stoicism - Finding Strength in...

  Stoicism is an ancient Greek philosophy that teaches how to live a good life, one filled with virtue, wisdom, and tranquility. Founded by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BCE, Stoicism is built on the idea that the key to happiness and fulfillment lies not in external circumstances, but in how we choose to respond to them. The philosophy emphasizes the development of self-control, rational thought, and resilience in the face of adversity. While it originated in ancient Greece, Stoicism has influenced many philosophers and continues to resonate with modern thinkers, offering practical tools for navigating life’s challenges. 
  At the core of Stoicism is the belief in distinguishing between what we can control and what we cannot. According to Stoic principles, we cannot control external events, but we can control our responses to them. This idea, known as the Dichotomy of Control, encourages individuals to focus on their actions, thoughts, and emotions rather than worrying about things beyond their influence. This shift in perspective can lead to greater peace of mind and less suffering, as it frees us from the emotional turmoil of trying to change the uncontrollable. 
  Stoicism is often associated with a few key figures, including Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius. Each of these philosophers contributed their own insights into the practice of Stoicism, emphasizing different aspects of the philosophy. Epictetus, for example, taught that true freedom comes from mastering our internal world, while Seneca focused on the importance of reflection and mindfulness in everyday life. Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor, applied Stoic principles to leadership and the challenges of ruling an empire, demonstrating how Stoicism can be practiced by anyone, no matter their role in society.
