  Byzantine-Sassanian Wars -...

  The Byzantine-Sassanian Wars were the result of a long-standing rivalry between two of the most powerful empires of late antiquity. The Byzantine Empire, the continuation of the Roman Empire in the East, and the Sassanian Empire of Persia, which had overthrown the Parthians in the third century, were natural adversaries. Their struggle for dominance spanned several centuries, shaping the political and military landscape of the Near East. 
  The foundations of this rivalry were rooted in geography, politics, and history. The Byzantine and Sassanian Empires shared a vast border stretching from the Caucasus to the Arabian deserts, making territorial disputes inevitable. Control over key regions such as Armenia, Mesopotamia, and the Levant was crucial for trade, military strategy, and influence. The buffer zones between them often became battlegrounds, as both empires sought to extend their influence over the same contested territories. 
  Religious and ideological differences further deepened the divide. The Byzantines, as heirs to the Roman tradition, followed Christianity, which had become the dominant faith under Emperor Constantine and later solidified as the state religion. In contrast, the Sassanian rulers were staunch supporters of Zoroastrianism, the ancient Persian faith. This religious contrast was more than just a matter of belief; it shaped policies, alliances, and even the justification for war. Both empires saw themselves as defenders of their respective faiths, using religion to rally support and justify their military campaigns.

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Second History of Man focuses mostly on bacteria and bacterial infections as the foundation, jumping off into Darwin and evolution, gin & tonics and the discovery of the first antibiotic to treat infection (and it wasn’t penicillin), visiting with those clever chaps who cook up drugs in the lab. We’ll call upon poets & poetry, celebrities like Frank Sinatra, the Rat Pack, and Bobby Darin, the classical music of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, the tragic story of World War II, Anne Frank and the Holocaust, tuberculosis, and a few of the rich & famous who suffered from TB, travelling back in time to the Black Death which wiped out 25 percent of humans on Earth, exploring the origins of a salon and a saloon, Columbus and the Age of Discovery, the lost generations of childhood, ending with the invention of the Internet.

  The Gods of Nibiru in the...

  No direct explanation is given for the origin and nature of the luminous bodies, the sun, the planets, and the stars. Because, as far back as our written sources go, the Sumerians regarded the moon-god, who went by the names Sin and Nanna, as the son of the air-god Enlil, it does not seem unreasonable to suggest that they saw the moon as a bright, air-like body fashioned from the atmosphere. As the sun-god Utu and the Venus goddess Inanna are always referred to in the texts as children of the moon-god, these luminous bodies were probably imagined as having come from the moon after the latter had been formed from the atmosphere. "The big ones walk around (the moon) like wild oxen," and "the little ones that are scattered around (the moon) like grain" are considered the rest of the planets and stars.
