The Frontier Below

Jeff Maynard

Triumphs and disasters in the deep sea
This is a journey through time and water, to the bottom of the ocean and the future of our planet.
We do not see the ocean when we look at the water that blankets more than two thirds of our planet. We only see the entrance to it. Beyond that entrance is a world hostile to humans, yet critical to our survival. The first divers to enter that world held their breath and splashed beneath the surface, often clutching rocks to pull them down. Over centuries, they invented wooden diving bells, clumsy diving suits, and unwieldy contraptions in attempts to go deeper and stay longer. But each advance was fraught with danger, as the intruders had to survive the crushing weight of water, or the deadly physiological effects of breathing compressed air. The vertical odyssey continued when explorers squeezed into heavy steel balls dangling on cables, or slung beneath floats filled with flammable gasoline. Plunging into the narrow trenches between the tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust, they eventually reached the bottom of the ocean in the same decade that men first walked on the moon.
Today, as nations scramble to exploit the resources of the ocean floor, The Frontier Below recalls a story of human endeavour that took 2,000 years to travel seven miles, then investigates how we will explore the ocean in the future.
Meticulously researched and drawing extensively on unpublished sources and personal interviews, The Frontier Below is the untold story of the pioneers who had the right stuff, but were forgotten because they went in the wrong direction.
The Frontier Below by Jeff Maynard is a captivating journey through the history of maritime expeditions, the science of physiology, and the economics of resource extraction. It is a testament to human endeavour and the indomitable spirit of exploration, offering a glimpse into the future of our oceans.

Egyptian Military Leaders -...

Omar Khalil

The military strength of ancient Egypt was a defining factor in its ability to expand and sustain one of the most enduring civilizations in history. From its early beginnings, Egypt developed a structured and disciplined military that evolved to meet the challenges posed by both internal conflicts and foreign threats. The foundation of this power lay in the organization of its armed forces, the strategic leadership of its rulers, and the continual advancement of its weaponry and tactics.
In the early periods, Egypt's military was primarily a defensive force, focused on protecting the fertile Nile Valley from nomadic raiders. The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under Narmer marked a crucial turning point, as military conquest became a tool for political consolidation. The pharaohs not only ruled as divine monarchs but also acted as supreme military commanders, leading their armies into battle and overseeing large-scale campaigns. This dual role reinforced their authority and ensured that military success translated into political stability.
One of the key factors in Egypt’s military rise was its ability to adapt to new technologies and strategies. During the Second Intermediate Period, Egypt faced the Hyksos, a foreign power that introduced advanced chariot warfare and superior composite bows. Instead of being permanently subdued, the Egyptians learned from their enemies, incorporating these innovations into their own forces. This adaptation played a crucial role in the expulsion of the Hyksos and the rise of the New Kingdom, during which Egypt became an empire with far-reaching influence.
